Man City vs Sevilla final score, updates, lineups, highlights and result as Guardiola's men win UEFA Super Cup shootout
Manchester City added the UEFA Super Cup to their Champions League title thanks to a 5-4 penalty shootout win over Sevilla in Piraeus.
Youssef En-Nesyri stole in between Nathan Ake and full debutant Josko Gvardiol to emphatically convert Marcos Acuna's cross and give Sevilla a 25th-minute lead.
City, who will be without playmaker Kevin De Bruyne for a number of months with a serious hamstring injury, hogged the ball for long spell but often lacked a creative spark.
En-Nesyri should have doubled his and Sevilla's tally early in the second half, with City indebted to a couple of fine saves from Ederson as Lucas Ocampos wrought havoc down the left flank.

England Under-21 winger Cole Palmer nodded in Rodri's cross to score as he did in the Community Shield against Arsenal 10 days ago.
On that occasion, City came up short from 12 yards but Erling Haaland, Julian Alvarez, Mateo Kovacic, Jack Grealish and Kyle Walker completed a flawless set of spot kicks.
Ocampos, Rafa Mir, Ivan Rakitic and Gonzalo Montiel showed the prowess that saw Sevilla win the Europa League against Roma in a shootout but Nemanja Gudelj, who performed superbly to help shackle Haaland, drove his kick against the crossbar to hand Pep Guardiola the fourth Super Cup triumph of his career.
