Safonov makes 4 penalty saves in shootout as PSG beats Flamengo to win
Intercontinental Cup
DOHA, Qatar (AP) --- Matvei Safonov made four straight penalty saves in a
shootout to help Paris Saint-Germain beat Flamengo in the Intercontinental Cup
final on Wednesday and win a sixth trophy of 2025.
The goalkeeper was thrown in the air by his teammates after his exploits in the
shootout that was won 2-1 by PSG after a 1-1 draw after extra time.
It completed a trophy-laden 12 months for the French team, which had already
won the Trophe des Champions, the French league, the French Cup, the Champions
League and the UEFA Super Cup --- also on penalties against Tottenham in August.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia gave PSG the lead in the 38th minute before Marquinhos
conceded a penalty converted by Jorginho in the 62nd minute for Flamengo, which
was looking to win a second Intercontinental Cup title after 1981.
Flamengo captured the Copa Libertadores and the Brazilian championship titles
in recent weeks.
It was a first global title for PSG.
