Chelsea Beat Villarreal To Win UEFA Super Cup

Kepa Arrizabalaga was the unlikely hero as Chelsea started the new season as they ended the last with a European trophy by beating Villarreal 6-5 on penalties after a 1-1 draw to win the UEFA Super Cup in Belfast.

The Spaniard, who has lost his place as number one since joining the club for a world-record fee for a goalkeeper in 2018, was introduced late in extra time as a substitute for the shootout and saved from Aissa Mandi and Raul Albiol.
