Interesting rules for the European Super Cup: draw a direct penalty in 90 minutes, cancel overtime
The European Super Cup will usher in a focus match-up - Premier League Tottenham against French Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain. However, a special rule of this game has attracted widespread attention: if both sides draw within 90 minutes of regular time, there will be no overtime, but will directly enter the penalty shootout to decide the outcome. This rule is formulated by UEFA and is different from events such as the Champions League, the UEFA Cup and the European Union. In those games, if the draw is drawn in regular time, 30 minutes of overtime must be played first, and the penalty kick will be won only if the winner is not decided after overtime. The European Super Cup skipped the overtime stage and strived to decide the championship in a more efficient way. This provision may have an important impact on the game strategy. For example, if Tottenham can successfully curb Paris Saint-Germain's offense within 90 minutes, it will not have to bear the physical exhaustion and defensive pressure brought by overtime, thereby occupying a more favorable psychological and physical state in the penalty shootout and increasing the chance of winning the championship with a "upset". It is worth mentioning that neither Tottenham nor Paris Saint-Germain have ever won the European Super Cup in history. Therefore, no matter which team wins the cup in the end, it will create a new chapter in team history. Tottenham's qualification for this competition comes from their defeat of Manchester United in the UEFA Cup final to win the championship; while Paris Saint-Germain played as the 2024/25 Champions League champion. They defeated Inter Milan in the final and achieved the "triple-champion" achievement of the season. From the perspective of paper strength, Paris Saint-Germain has a number of top stars such as Ashraf Hakimi, Kvaratskhelia, Douai, Dembele, etc., and its overall strength is significantly superior. But Tottenham coach Thomas Frank is still full of confidence: "This is a final and we are eager to win. Paris is currently the strongest team in Europe, and every position is excellent, but we believe in ourselves and will go all out to compete for the championship." The 2025 European Super Cup will be held at 3 am on August 14 at the Bru Energy Stadium in Udinese, Italy, and a peak showdown with passion and tactics will be staged.
