Manchester City in a midweek action defeated Sevilla in the Uefa Super Cup this evening. This is the first time Manchester City have won the Uefa Super Cup and it's their first attempt. It is also City’s fourth trophy of 2023.
Man City Palmer equalised the game in the 63rd minute to neutralise Sevilla's En-Nesyri 25th minute goal in the first half. The match ended in a penalty shoot out. City's dominance in the game was visible.
Recall that Pep Guardiola’s men were victorious in the their Champions League final against Inter Milan back in June, securing a treble in the process, and settiing the stage for this one-off match against the Europa League winners - Sevilla.
Sevilla were rooted as City’s major opponents after the Spanish team won the Europa Leagu, by beating Jose Mourinho’s Roma. They are well versed in Super Cup games having lost four of these matches of the last nine seasons while tonight’s game will be City’s first appearance in the Super Cup.
