I was shocked by the fact that extra time wasn't played and the match went to penalties. It seemed so strange to me that I was shocked, but perhaps they did it to avoid tiring the players too much given the heat. If it had been played longer, things would have gone differently in my opinion.
After the Super Cup ended at full time without a winner, I was expecting PSG and Tottenham Hotspur to settle their differences in extra time, but I was surprised when they went straight to a penalty shootout without playing extra time. Maybe UEFA knows best why PSG and Tottenham Hotspur didn't play extra time in the Super Cup.
I was not aware of this rule and was surprised. For Tottenham, this match is like an unexpected defeat because they played impressively for almost the entire match but did not win. I was surprised that PSG did not give up until the end of the match to win even after being two goals behind. Winning the penalty shootout by paying two goals at the very last moment made it even more lucky for them.
