How PSG staged late fightback to beat Tottenham in Super Cup final

'He was late one too many times' - A Frank explanation from Tottenham Hotspur head coach Thomas for Yves Bissouma's UEFA

Tottenham lost the Super Cup final to Paris Saint-Germain after surrendering a two-goal lead and then losing a penalty shootout.
Spurs initially led 2-0 with goals from Micky van de Ven and newly appointed captain Cristian Romero, both from set-pieces.
Paris Saint-Germain mounted a late comeback, with Kang-in Lee scoring with five minutes remaining and substitute Goncalo Ramos heading in an equaliser in stoppage time.
In the penalty shootout, Tottenham gained an early advantage when Vitinha missed for PSG, and Rodrigo Bentancur scored to make it 2-0 in the shootout.
However, Micky van de Ven and Mathys Tel failed to convert their penalties, allowing Nuno Mendes to score the winning spot-kick for PSG, who triumphed 4-3.
