Paris changes goalkeepers in the European Super Cup: Shevalier goes from mistake to the Savior, Donnarumma comes to the curtain call!

From serious mistakes to becoming a key figure in winning the penalty shootout.

Paris Saint-Germain paid him tens of millions of euros, and in the UEFA Super Cup, he replaced Donarumma. Responding slowly in the 0-2 draw, he then turned into a savior - he is Paris' new goalkeeper Lucas Schevalier.

Lucas Shevalier's debut happened to be in the European Super Cup, and after Donaluma left the starting lineup - the club's iconic figure and reliable guarantees in the past few years will move elsewhere - forced Shevalier to wear gloves and guard the goal for the first time for Paris Saint-Germain in a final that decided the UEFA Super Cup championship. In the second half, the tension made Lucas Schevalier in a bad state: facing Couti Romero's header, Lucas Schevalier reacted slowly and watched the ball enter the net, allowing Tottenham to expand the score to 2-0.

This goal seemed to have set a conclusion for the game and also put Shevalier under heavy pressure, but he then had a chance to save him. Lee Gangren scored a goal for the Champions League title, and Gonzalo Ramos tied the score to 2-2 at the end of the game.

The time for the penalty shootout has come. Can this former Lille goalkeeper redeem himself? He did it.

The young goalkeeper saved Van der Fen — Tottenham’s third penalty — with a powerful and heavy shot, setting the penalty to 2-2. This save injected vitality into Paris Saint-Germain, and the team then took the lead, eventually winning the penalty shootout and winning the Champions League Super Cup. In just a few minutes, Lucas Shevalier went from being a "sinner" to one of the heroes who were scrambling to embrace his teammates.

Shevalier was born in Calais (6 November 2001) from Lille Youth Training Camp. After completing his career debut in 2021, he was loaned to Valencienna, and then he firmly took the main position in the Lille team, which trained him. His outstanding performance won him the title of Ligue 1 Best Goalkeeper in the 2024-25 season.

In addition to the speed of reaction, his footwork skills also attracted the attention of the Paris Saint-Germain coaching staff, which the coaching staff believes is crucial in the tactical style that coach Louis Enrique hopes to implement.

Paris paid tens of millions of euros for his transfer: a fixed fee of 40 million euros plus a floating clause of 15 million euros. The club has great trust in this goalkeeper who has shown great talent.

Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper's position has been completely changed

Gianluigi Donnarumma was excluded from the UEFA Champions League Super Cup roster, the Italian goalkeeper, who was a key member of Paris Saint-Germain's historic triple last season, announced on social media that he would leave the club and ended his four successful seasons in Paris.

Donarumma's contract with Paris expired in 2026, but the relationship between the two sides was broken due to differences in economic and competitive directions. Despite being away from Paris in the future, Donnarumma has attracted the attention of Premier League giants Manchester City.
