PSG claim dramatic shoot-out victory over Tottenham to win UEFA Super Cup
UDINE, ITALY: European champions Paris St-Germain produced a superb late recovery before winning a penalty shootout to clinch the UEFA Super Cup and deny Thomas Frank a first trophy as Tottenham boss. Spurs led 2-0 after 84 minutes and were then seconds away from clinching an impressive victory before PSG substitute Goncalo Ramos headed in a 94th-minute equaliser. That took the tie straight to penalties and PSG missed their opening effort as Vitinha fired wide, but Micky van de Ven, who had scored Tottenham's first goal earlier on, had his spot kick saved by Lucas Chevalier. Mathys Tel shot wide for Frank's side before Nuno Mendes held his nerve to convert the winning penalty for PSG. It meant Tottenham missed out on winning a second European trophy in three months. Frank was taking charge of Tottenham in a competitive match for the first time since he replaced Ange Postecoglou, who was sacked 16 days after guiding the club to a 1-0 victory over Manchester United in the Europa League final in May. Van de Ven put Tottenham ahead in Udine, Italy, reacting first to slide in the rebound after Chevalier had tipped Joao Palhinha's effort on to the crossbar just before half-time. Chevalier - expected to be PSG's regular goalkeeper this season after Gianluigi Donnarumma was surprisingly left out of their squad - was beaten again early in the second half when he got two hands to Cristian Romero's header following Pedro Porro's free-kick but could not keep the ball out of the net. But PSG, who only returned to training a week ago after reaching the final of the Club World Cup in the United States in July, fought back in style. Lee Kang-in started the recovery with an excellent strike from 20 yards, before Ramos dramatically took the tie to a shootout with PSG triumphing.

Tottenham slam racist abuse of Tel after defeat by PSG in UEFA Super Cup
Tottenham has slammed the 'cowards' who racially abused French forward Mathys Tel in the wake of the team's loss to Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup after a penalty shootout. The 20-year-old Tel, who is Black, was one of two Tottenham players who failed to convert their penalties as they lost the shootout 4-3 to PSG after a 2-2 draw. 'We are disgusted at the racial abuse that Mathys Tel has received on social media following last night's UEFA Super Cup defeat,' Tottenham said in a statement. 'Mathys showed bravery and courage to step forward and take a penalty, yet those who abuse him are nothing but cowards – hiding behind anonymous usernames and profiles to spout their abhorrent views.' Tottenham said the club will work with the authorities and social media platforms to take 'the strongest possible action against any individual we are able to identify'. 'We stand with you, Mathys,' Spurs added. Tel, who joined the team on a permanent basis from Bayern Munich in the offseason after a loan spell last season, went on as a substitute in the 79th minute when Tottenham was 2-0 ahead. He hit his shootout penalty wide.
