Nantes were generally outplayed and outclassed by the star-studded conquerors from Paris and offered little or no resistance during the encounter. Nantes qualified for the French Super Cup courtesy of winning the Coupe De France last season, while PSG won the Ligue 1. The French Super Cup is the traditional season opener in France and is usually contested between the winners of the Coupe De France and Ligue 1 winners.
