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.
