The 2023 Lebanese Super Cup was the 22nd Lebanese Super Cup, an annual football match played between the winners of the previous season's Lebanese Premier League and the winners of the previous season's Lebanese FA Cup.

The match was played at the Fouad Chehab Stadium on 30 July 2023. Nejmeh won their seventh title, defeating Ahed on penalties, following a 0–0 draw after regular time.[1]

Match

Summary

Ahed began the match on the offensive, with Nejmeh's goalkeeper Ali Sabeh saving several efforts, most notably a shot by Lee Erwin in the 15th minute. Three minutes later, successive shots by Mohammad Abu Hasheesh and Erwin were dealt with by Sabeh and defender Kassem El Zein, respectively. In the second half, Nejmeh took control of the game, with Hassan Kourani's free kick effort finishing just above the goal. Ahed's most dangerous chance came in the 72nd minute: Karim Darwich crossed to Erwin, who headed the ball just wide. Nejmeh's Khalil Bader also tried to score after dribbling past several players in the 88nd minute, but his shot was too weak. After a goalless draw in regular time, the match directly progressed into a penalty shoot-out. Nejmeh scored four penalties to Ahed's one, and won their seventh Super Cup title.[2]
