Paris Saint-Germain has been allocated extra dressing room space for the UEFA Super Cup match against Aston Villa, after the French club expressed its dissatisfaction with the original facilities at the Red Bull Arena in Salzburg. The Champions League holders found the allocated away dressing room too small compared to that of the opponent and raised this with UEFA on Monday morning during the regular preliminary meeting.
Aston Villa, the winner of the Europa League, uses Red Bull Salzburg's home dressing room in Salzburg. As a result, PSG had to rely on the dressing room. According to those involved, coach Luis Enrique's team wanted to have a similar amount of space as Villa, partly because the Parisians are the reigning Super Cup winners after their victory over Tottenham Hotspur on penalties last year. The European association responded to the French club by making an extra dressing room available that is normally used by match officials. Important detail: no officials had to be moved; it was a reserve facility that turned out to be usable to give PSG more space.
PSG traveled to Austria with a selection of twenty players. Among them are striker Bradley Barcola, midfielder Vitinha and left back Lucas Digne, who came over from Aston Villa on Sunday. For the Parisians, the match against the English club is the continuation of the successful European adventure with which they defended their Champions League title in May with a victory over Arsenal.
It is a special occasion for Aston Villa: the English club, led by Unai Emery, is playing its first Super Cup since 1982. Villa ended a thirty-year trophyless period last season by winning the Europa League in Istanbul at the expense of Freiburg. The Birmingham team secured that successplow from participating in the traditional European season opener between the winners of the Champions League and the Europa League.
The discussion about the changing rooms sheds light on the logistical and organizational details involved in a one-off final. Neutral venues with fixed club layouts, such as the Red Bull Arena, often have a clear hierarchy of facilities between home and away teams. In this case, UEFA provided a pragmatic solution to create equal conditions for both finalists. The focus is once again fully on the sporting side: a meeting between the champions of Europe, with the opportunity for PSG to underline its status as Super Cup holder and for Aston Villa to add extra luster to a historic return to the European stage.
What's happening now
With the extra dressing room, PSG can better prepare for their confrontation with Aston Villa in the UEFA Super Cup. The match will be an opportunity for players such as Bradley Barcola and Lucas Digne to prove themselves on the European stage. Fans can look forward to an exciting match at the Red Bull Arena, where both teams will compete for the prestigious trophy.
