Which day of the week hosted the 2026 UEFA Super Cup final?

The 2026 UEFA Super Cup final was played on a Wednesday.

Its date was 12 August 2026, when Paris Saint-Germain faced Aston Villa in Salzburg. Paris won 2–1 in a match that began the 2026–27 European club season.

The weekday is useful for distinguishing the final from nearby match dates and from the 2025 Super Cup, which was played on Wednesday 13 August 2025. UEFA’s Super Cup is normally scheduled in August as a single showpiece match rather than as a multi-round tournament.

Paris scored first through Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Villa levelled through Brian Madjo, and Désiré Doué scored the winning goal. The result allowed Paris to defend the trophy it had won the previous year.
