Paris Saint-Germain beat Nantes to win the French Super Cup final, with goals from Messi, Neymar and Sergio Ramos in what was Christopher Galtier's first game as coach of the capital club. The goal that Messi scored in that match was one for the records, literally.

The team's new coach, Christopher Galtier, was "very satisfied" with the team's performance: "I am very happy and very satisfied overall," said the coach at a press conference after the match, which marked his first official match in charge of the Parisian team.

Galtier highlighted the performance of Lionel Messi (one goal) and Neymar (two goals and one assist), and above all the good understanding between the two on the pitch. "This victory is very important for us," added the coach, who has been in charge for less than a month and already boasts his first trophy.

"We worked throughout the preparatory stage to get this win," he noted, referring to PSG's successful tour of Japan before traveling to Israel for the match in Tel Aviv.

Pele's record broken by Messi

Messi has won: 10 Spanish Leagues, seven Spanish Super Cups, four Champions Leagues, seven King's Cups, four European Super Cups and three Club World Cups. He also scored 32 goals in finals, surpassing Pelé (29), who held the record for 47 years.
