Honestly I was expecting Manchester City to win this Community Shield title one way or another. I waited for a good competition at the beginning of the season of course. Because this was the first official game for both teams so I didn't expect so many goals. We were about to find out which side was readier than the other one.

Palmer's goal was really lovely and I thought the game was going to end by 1-0. But it was unbelievable that there was a stoppage time of more than 10 minutes and Trossard scored the equalizer in the last moments. This was the turning point for Arsenal as they won by 4-1 on penalties.

Before the match begin Manchester City is the favourite this because during train by Arteta Arsenal was never able to beat Manchester City but Arsenal is really didn't give up that they always be focus during the match and indeed late goal from Trossard is really unexpected by Manchester City that they didn't focus at the end of second half and after this goal it's clearly Arsenal can restore their mental condition and this make they can able to make epic comeback and won the game but indeed Guardiola said he was really dissappoint to see Manchester City players during penalty kick that seems they aren't ready to facing that situation however congratulations for Arsenal because finally they got their first trophy this season and this is their 17th title

Manchester City, indeed, went into the game as the favorites in this, but Arsenal, my dear friends, didn't just give in or give up. They did what they always do, by being focused during the match, which they always be doing, and indeed late goal from Trossard is what made the difference. This was something that was not at all expected by Manchester City in their own game that they didn't focus on at the end of the second half

And after this goal, it was indeed clear that Arsenal, the team that really wanted it, could restore their mental condition, and this makes that they were able to make an epic comeback. Yes, an epic one that won the game, but Guardiola said something. He was really disappointed to see his players during penalty kicks, something they seemingly weren't ready to face, which was the situation they found themselves in

But congratulations to Arsenal, who finally got their first trophy, their 17th title, indeed this season. They showed real confidence, something they do, and determination against Man City. They became the 17th Community Shield Champions, and we wait to see what unfolds in the season to start
