Before the start of the penalty shootout in the Intercontinental Cup final between PSG and Flamengo, the Parisian team's goalkeeper, Matvey Safonov, was seen chatting with the technical staff and then took out a hidden note, wrapped in a towel.
The letter contained specific instructions on the directions in which Flamengo players were expected to take penalties.
Safonov kept the score with him throughout the entire penalty shootout, never letting go until the very end. And the plan worked perfectly.
The Russian goalkeeper became PSG's absolute hero, saving four out of five penalties from Flamengo players and securing the French team's victory after a 1-1 draw in regular time and extra time.
Safonov's performance not only saved PSG from a penalty spot after mistakes by Ousmane Dembele and Bradley Barclay, but also showed the importance of analysis, preparation and the small details that decide trophies.
