Man City Defeats Sevilla, Lifts UEFA Super Cup

Treble winners in the 2022 /2023 season, Manchester City clinched the 2023 UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday evening by beating Sevilla 5-4 on penalties after regular time ended 1-1 in the final.

Morocco international Youssef En-Nesyri netted a goal for Sevilla in the 25th minute at Karaiskakis Stadium in Greece.

Manchester City midfielder Cole Palmer who also scored last week Sunday in the Community Shield against Arsenal levelled the score in the 63rd minute with a close header.

Man City netted all five penalties, while Sevilla missed the fifth one and lost the match.

The 2023 UEFA Champions League winners bagged their maiden final, while last season’s UEFA Europa League champions Sevilla missed a chance to bag their second trophy.

The UEFA Super Cup is an annual match contested between the winners of the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League of last season.
