Premier League and F.A. Cup Champions Manchester City were facing Arsenal in the Community Shield Game at Wembley. Everyone expected this to be a one-sided affair as Manchester City blew every opponent whom they faced last season. Even the Gunners were demolished by the men in blue at both home and away. However football is a game of uncertainty. Anyone can beat anyone on their day and that is what happened yesterday.
Gunners succeeded in winning the Community Shield game by the barest of margins. Why I am saying so- Because the men in blue were leading till the 100th minute of the game, but in the nick of time the Gunners got an equalizer by a deflection. Due to this the match went into penalty shoot out in which Arsenal emerged as winners.
The impossible had happened. City has finally been defeated. Manchester City lost the Community Shield last year as well and after that they made a historic comeback. Will they make a comeback again? The answer lies in the womb of time. However for the time being the march of the Invincibles have been stopped by the Original Invincibles.
