Dembele believed in Shevalen's ability to save penalties

PSG forward Ousmane Dembele commented on the actions of the team's goalkeeper Luka Shevalev during the UEFA Super Cup match against Tottenham. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

This match was the first official game for the 23-year-old goalkeeper in the PSG squad. He had recently transferred from the Lille club to the Paris team.

Dembele mentioned that when the game ended in a 2:2 draw and reached the penalty shootout, he believed that Luka Shevalev would save the penalties. He said: “At the end of the game, when the score was tied and it was clear that the penalty shootout would begin, I told myself that Luka would save the penalties and we would win.

He is a strong guy, and events unfolded just like that,” he emphasized. Dembele also regarded the achievement of the Paris club in winning five trophies within a year as a significant accomplishment.

According to him, this result is very important for the club and a joyful event for the fans. However, the PSG team was unable to win the World Club Championship.

In the final match, the Parisians lost the opportunity to a London-based team, Chelsea, with a score of 0:3. Thus, although PSG showed high results in all tournaments, they could not secure the World Championship title.
