Paris Saint-Germain crowned a remarkable season by lifting the Intercontinental Cup in Doha, edging past Flamengo after a dramatic penalty shoot-out. The final finished 1-1 after normal time, before PSG held their nerve to win the shoot-out 2-1 and add yet another trophy to an already glittering collection.

The French champions struck first midway through the opening half when Khvicha Kvaratskhelia fired home in the 38th minute, underlining his growing influence on the global stage. Flamengo responded after the break through Jorginho, who calmly converted a penalty to restore parity and send the final into a tense finale.

With no further goals in regulation time, the trophy was decided from the spot — and this is where PSG found their hero. Goalkeeper Matvey Safonov delivered a stunning performance, saving four penalties to tilt the contest decisively in the Parisians’ favour and silence the Brazilian support in the Qatari capital.

The triumph marked PSG’s sixth trophy of 2025, a feat that places them in truly elite company. The club have now matched the legendary achievement of Barcelona and Bayern Munich by completing a clean sweep of all available honours in a single season — a statement of dominance on a global scale.
