Fabian Ruiz has been dropped from PSG's starting lineup against Aston Villa in the UEFA Super Cup 2026 final. Paris Saint-Germain pursue their second consecutive UEFA Super Cup title in the 2026 edition when they face Aston Villa on Wednesday, August 12, at Red Bull Arena in Salzburg, Austria. However, the French champions navigate several key absences, with midfielder Fabian Ruiz left out of the starting lineup for the clash against the Villans. Ruiz begins the match on the substitute bench against Aston Villa due to a tactical decision by head coach Luis Enrique. The Spanish international recently reported back to training following an extended post-World Cup vacation, leaving him with limited conditioning ahead of the seasonal opener. The midfielder served as an indispensable contributor for Luis Enrique across the last two campaigns, helping PSG capture back-to-back Champions League titles. Despite suffering a knee injury that sidelined him for 16 matches between January and April during the 2025-26 season, Ruiz recovered in time for the stretch run, logging 34 appearances, two goals, and five assists across all competitions. Ruiz started four matches during the 2026 World Cup under Spain manager Luis de la Fuente, earning a starting role over Pedri in the final. While Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano “Dibu” Martinez also featured in that final for Argentina on July 19, Ruiz returned to team activities on a delayed schedule, prompting Luis Enrique to ease him back into competition from the bench.

(Carl Recine/Getty Images) With Fabian Ruiz far from his ideal form, Luis Enrique has opted to deploy an alternative midfield in the UEFA Super Cup final. Vitinha and Joao Neves will be starting, but Warren Zaire-Emery, who was also present for France in the 2026 World Cup roster, will be the third midfield who’ll be covering the Spaniard.
Uefa presented some of its crown jewels through European champions PSG but the turmoil engulfing Fifa is still the main topic on the menuThis was an opportune night to show off some of Uefa’s crown jewels. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia knows a thing or two about sitting Fifa tournaments out, albeit through sheer accident of birth, but proved yet again that he will show up whatever the stage. It was some way to kick off a European football season when the Georgian, with a familiar exhibition of assured footwork and rip-roaring finishing, found Marco Bizot’s top corner. Given the past fortnight’s events nobody could turn their noses up at a reminder of why, through the muck and grubbiness that has thrown the sport into turmoil, we are all really here.Earlier on, the Uefa hierarchy and guests had enjoyed their pre-match lunch inside Hangar 7, a vast exhibition hall next to Salzburg airport that houses an array of cars and craft from Red Bull’s various endeavours. A main course of Wagyu tenderloin stole the scene and, for those craving a dose of local flavour, curd cheese dumplings were served next. But the main topic of conversation on the menu brought a more bitter taste. The fallout from Gianni Infantino’s collapsed Fifa Forward Enterprise scheme will cast its own eclipse over football until an agreeable resolution has been reached. Continue reading...
Uefa Super Cup: Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 Aston VillaKvaratskhelia 20, Doué 62; Madjo 45Luis Enrique says it doesn’t matter which sport he is playing – football, tennis, padel or parchis, a board game – he wants to win all of the time. In Paris Saint-Germain, he has built a winning machine, the back-to-back Champions League victors maintaining a useful habit by conquering Aston Villa in an absorbing Super Cup contest in Salzburg. For PSG, after the joy of Munich and Budapest, three months ago, does a three-peat in Madrid in May beckon?Aston Villa more than played their part in an enthralling showpiece, Brian Madjo becoming the competition’s youngest scorer after the 17-year-old cancelled out Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s opener. They could have taken the game to a penalty shootout, Warren Zaïre-Emery’s extraordinary block preventing João Gomes a near-certain debut goal and Emi Buendía heading wide in stoppage time.

PSG were crowned champions of the 2026 UEFA Super Cup, and Luis Enrique matched an impressive record held by legendary manager Alex Ferguson. PSG lifted the 2026 UEFA Super Cup after beating Aston Villa 2-1 in Salzburg to open the new European season with silverware. The result marked another milestone night for manager Luis Enrique, who continues to build one of the most decorated résumés in the history of European club soccer. With the win, Luis Enrique now has six European club titles to his name, moving him level with Alex Ferguson and Giovanni Trapattoni for third on the all-time list of most European titles won by a manager. Only Carlo Ancelotti, with 10, and Pep Guardiola, with seven, stand above that trio in the historic ranking, which also includes Bob Paisley, José Mourinho, Zinédine Zidane and Unai Emery with five apiece. Between his time at Barcelona and now PSG, Luis Enrique has built a legacy defined not just by the volume of trophies, but by his consistency on the biggest stage — a distinction that places him firmly among the most successful managers the European game has ever produced. Luis Enrique celebrates as he lifts the UEFA Super Cup trophy. (Getty Images) Luis Enrique’s perfect record in European finals What makes Luis Enrique’s case stand out even further is his perfect record in continental finals. The Spanish coach has now reached six European finals across his career and won every single one of them, a run that surpasses Zinédine Zidane’s own flawless mark of five finals and five titles. Between two different clubs and more than a decade apart, Enrique has never once lost on the biggest stage Europe has to offer. His six European finals, all won: Champions League 2015 (Barcelona) — beat Juventus 3-1UEFA Super Cup 2015 (Barcelona) — beat Sevilla 5-4 (after extra time)Champions League 2025 (PSG) — beat Inter Milan 5-0UEFA Super Cup 2025 (PSG) — beat Tottenham 2-2 (won on penalties)Champions League 2026 (PSG) — beat Arsenal 1-1 (won 4-3 on penalties)UEFA Super Cup 2026 (PSG) — beat Aston Villa 2-1

Or rather sailing, as they hoof it into the stand, rugby style, as is their wont. “I’m glad that Omar Artan will get a chance to do what he does best, after being denied entry to the GWC,” writes Peter Oh. “Never mind the ‘104 Super Bowls’, here comes the Super Cup!”The teams are out! PSG in their first-choice blue and red, Villa in a very light blue that’s almost white, which, it says here, “pays rich tribute to the famous stadium’s Holte End, drawing inspiration from the iconic mosaic that greets loyal fans as they file into the stand.” We’ll be off in a minute!
