Community Shield

Liverpool and Manchester City will compete for the Community Shield at the King Power Stadium, but why not at Wembley?

Last time Liverpool featured in the Community Shield they were defeated on penalties by Arsenal following a 1-1 draw, whilst Manchester City tasted defeat at the hands of current holders Leicester, thanks to a late Kelechi Iheanacho penalty. Today's fixture between Liverpool and Manchester City will take place at the home of Leicester City, the King Power Stadium. Klopp's side will be hoping to get revenge over City, who pipped the Reds to the league title in a dramatic final day of the season.

Alisson and Ederson are nigh-inseparable, but Caoimhín Kelleher has proven to be a better deputy than Claudio Bravo or, as we saw in the FA Cup semi-final last season, Zack Steffen. Guardiola, meanwhile, has found inspiration from Liverpool in moving his full-backs from in-field to closer to the touchlines and asking them to share a significant part of the creative burden. If they can, it will once again be a shootout between both for the title. More familiar are the teams in action: Manchester City and Liverpool, the definitive English football rivalry of this era and one of the best in the country’s history. Guardiola always rankled at the tiki-taka moniker for his Barcelona side (in terms of catch-all titles, he prefers juego de posicion), and the best tactic for keeping it in check became Klopp’s gegenpressing. The Community Shield raises the curtain on the top flight this afternoon, a tradition differently hued by being held at the King Power Stadium in Leicester as Wembley is booked up for the European Championship final.

Extraordinarily, none of the first five penalties were scored, with Liverpool missing three and City missing two. Just as City looked to have won the game though, a mistimed Joao Cancelo challenge saw Liverpool awarded a penalty in the 91st minute as Salah raced through on goal. A loose pass from Ibrahim Konate saw City intercept and charge at Liverpool on the counter-attack. City started the game faster and with more energy, with Haaland stinging the gloves of Adrian early on. A high press from Luis Diaz on the left forced Kyle Waker into an error on the halfway line, prompting the Liverpool winger to surge down the wing.

Not all trophies were created equal but, just like the League Cup is not as important as the Premier League and the Europa League is lesser than the Champions League, the Community Shield can have a place among the game’s big prizes. That place can be towards the bottom of the totem pole, sure, but the grand old Shield should have a place nonetheless. Add in the fact that, while Euro 2022 has ably scratched our football itch this year, the return of club football is something to be celebrated after a summer away, and you get quite the attractive package. The European Super Cup, an annual clash between the Champions League and Europa League winning sides, also struggles for the kind of cultural cache in England that it enjoys across the rest of the continent. English football has a long history of sneering at trophies they don’t consider “proper”. The Europa League is considered a major prize across Europe but still meets with jibes about Thursday nights and its lowly status compared with the commercial juggernaut of the Champions League. The Europa Conference League was barely a blip in England for similar reasons. English football’s traditional curtain-raiser takes place this weekend, as Premier League champions Manchester City face FA Cup holders Liverpool in the Community Shield. The showpiece should be a thrilling contest between two teams who have been far and away the best in the country in recent years.
