Mauro Icardi gave the Paris side the lead in the 39th minute, a lead they held onto until the 89th minute when Marseilleโs Dimitri Payet equalised late on.
Unfortunately for Marseille the equaliser wasnโt enough and Kylian Mbappรฉ snatched victory from the penalty spot in the 95th minute securing Pochettioโs first honour at the club.

Pochettino was manager at Tottenham Hotspur for five years but never managed to win a trophy. The Argentine spent 2001 days in charge of the North-Londoners without winning a single title.
Now, just 11 days into his new job the former PSG player has gotten his hands on some much wanted silverware after a baron spell in England.
Pochettino did bring Spurs to the Champions League final in 2019 where they fell at the last hurdle losing 2-0 to fellow Premier League side Liverpool.
