BREAKING: Amazing Turnaround As #Arsenal Defeat Manchester City To Win #CommunityShield For 17th Times—The Genius Media Nigeria reports that Arsenal has just defeated Manchester City to win 2023 Community Shield trophy.
It’s second Community Shield and third trophy in total for Mikel Arteta since he joined Arsenal in 2019.
It’s Community Shield number 17 in Arsenal history.
Arsenal scored a last minute equaliser to take the Community Shield to penalties and then downed Manchester City in the shoot out in dramatic scenes at Wembley.
Cole Palmer looked to have won the game for City when the substitute curled in a superb goal on 77 minutes, but as the game went deep into injury time the Gunners struck back.
11 minutes after the 90 another substitute, Leandro Trossard, got hold of a short corner, cut into the box and had a pop at goal which was deflected past goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, taking the game to pens.
There was a surprise early in the shoot out as Kevin De Bruyne hammered his penalty against the cross bar after Martin Odegaard had opened the scoring for Arsenal.
