This morning, PSV and Red Bull Bragantino faced off in a penalty shootout to determine who would emerge as the winner of the group stage. Both teams had the same number of points and an identical goal difference, so penalties were needed to break the tie.

Both teams appeared well-prepared for this situation, as the first 15 penalties were flawlessly executed. However, on the 16th penalty, PSV goalkeeper Stijn Kuijsten managed to save Cauê Nascimento Santos' shot, securing the win for PSV.

With this victory, the semifinals for places 1 through 4 are now set. At 11:00 AM, PSV will play against Benfica on the main field, while Red Bull Bragantino will face Atlético Madrid on field 1. The winners of these matches will compete in the final at 2:30 PM this afternoon for the title.
