Arsenal won the Community Shield tournament. Arsenal made good transfers and used their budget well. City had more possession in the first half but they struggled to get shots on goal. In the second half, we watched a more balanced game. City, who led 1-0 in the 77th minute, drew 1-1 with a goal in the last seconds of extra time and the match went to penalties. In the penalties, Rodri and de Bruyne missed their penalties and they lost 4-1.
By the way, I wonder what the Pep Guardiola reason for replacing Haaland with Cole Palmer. Although indeed, the substitution provided a quick goal for Cole Palmer as well but unfortunately, Arsenal managed to make a goal back and finally the macth continued to the penalty shootout. But indeed, I also recognize that Arsenal have great ambition and that is proven, in the end Arsenal won the trophy in this event. It's just a pity for Manchester City who were unable to maintain the victory they had in this match.
I can't blame Pep Guardiola for this result and say he is guilty of losing the game just because of not placing Haaland in another position or because of replacing Haaland and Palmer. Pep Guardiola is a wise coach and he proved it in the last season when they won many titles with this coach but still Guardiola can make mistakes, even the greatest coach in the world can make mistakes.
But I think the main reason for Macnshter City to lose that game was not Guardiola. But it was because of Haaland.
