00:00So what have you been doing for the last 77 days?
00:04I'm guessing you probably watched the Euros,
00:06doubtlessly you were tuned in to the US Tour.
00:09Whatever you've been up to, the wait is now over
00:12from the end of last season to the very start of this,
00:16as the Blues kick off the 2024-25 campaign
00:20with the traditional curtain raiser, the Community Shield.
00:24Kanji plays it out wide to Oscar Bob,
00:29Bob down the right side, comes inside away from Rashford,
00:32brilliant feet, he gets to the edge of the area,
00:35in towards O'Reilly on the edge, O'Reilly can't control it,
00:38got trapped under his foot, and then he wins it back
00:41after Casemiro had dispossessed him,
00:43but Oscar Bob looks absolutely at the top of his game.
00:47We need to get him on the ball a little bit more, Docu.
00:55Well, right on cue, he gets it through the legs of Dalot,
00:58gets towards the edge of the area, into the box he goes,
01:01he's round Maguire, clips it in!
01:03Oh, it's beaten everyone, it went past everyone.
01:06Trying to make things happen with that cheeky nutmeg,
01:09we're getting another look.
01:11Jeremy Docu outstanding.
01:18Diaz plays it in, nice ball, Oscar Bob,
01:20chance to really go at United here.
01:22Gets to the edge of the area, Rico Luis is on to it,
01:25Rico Luis with a deflected cross, Harlan tries to whip it back in again,
01:28and it's thumped away by Dalot.
01:30It was one of those moments where it just kind of broke for Harlan,
01:34but he couldn't really score, so he tried to play it back across the area,
01:38and United got it away.
01:42And it goes to Lissandro Martinez, who brings it out.
01:47No real intense press, so he passes it,
01:50oh, he almost gave it away, straight to Oscar Bob,
01:52and then he's pleased, the rebound comes back to it.
01:55And he goes back to Onan, who returns it back to the Argentinian,
01:59oh, that's a poor ball, and Bob into McAtee,
02:01McAtee hits the post!
02:03United playing out from the back, making another mess of it.
02:08Yeah, really good attempt, putting the pressure on,
02:11trying to attack in forward areas as much as you possibly can,
02:15but once it opens up, McAtee tries to drift it right around the right-hand of the goalkeeper,
02:21and just agonisingly hits that post and comes away.
02:28And the ball has gone back to Fernandes, gets it back from Villar,
02:32Fernandes again, onto Casemiro, Meunier, Fernandes...
02:36Oh, good ball, Rashford!
02:38Oh, and he's placed it wide of the post,
02:40it opened up for Rashford to bend it round the goalkeeper and into the far corner,
02:44but he set it out far too wide, and it went two or three metres beyond the post.
02:52Kanji, oh, that's not good, picked off by Mount,
02:55and United try to win it back, and then Kovacic emerges with it.
02:59Just a bit short that from a Kanji, but Kovacic,
03:02charging from one end of the field to the other,
03:04and he plays it across to Doku, City on the edge of the area,
03:07Doku now, can he find a shot, can he find a cross,
03:10he hits it wide, not by much!
03:12City say that's a corner, Jared Gillett say it's a goal kick,
03:16and I get the impression that the referees got that one wrong,
03:19but either way it was unlucky.
03:25Now here's Fernandes on the edge of the City area,
03:27tries the shot and scores!
03:30Bruno Fernandes, well he thinks he's offside,
03:33he looks at the assistant, and the assistant agrees.
03:37Well Bruno Fernandes stopped thinking he was offside,
03:40he played it over the top into the corner of the net,
03:43and then the flag went up.
03:49On the edge of the penalty area, but on the left-hand side with Doku,
03:52Doku tries to get to the line, he does do,
03:55lays it across, it breaks for Makati,
03:57Makati tries to play it back to Lewis,
04:00Lewis under pressure, and it breaks for Guardiola,
04:04Guardiola tries the shot, hits it wide, it wasn't far off,
04:07but we do know that he possesses a really good hit with his right boot,
04:10he scored five goals last season in April and May.
04:15And there's going to be another debut,
04:17because Savino is coming on to replace Jeremy Doku.
04:20There'll be a lot of City fans very excited at seeing
04:23City's only new signing this summer.
04:30Savino comes inside off the line,
04:32drifts further, keeps on going, plays it out wide,
04:35on it goes to Matthews-Nunes,
04:37well, there's the first glimpse of what he can do,
04:39and it was impressive.
04:41Very quick feet,
04:44maybe awareness just to get his head up.
04:51Got to give incredible credit to the City fans,
04:54who keep coming down to these Wembley occasions.
04:57But at the moment they're watching United with Garnaccio,
05:00into the middle it goes for Rashford,
05:02and he's hit the outside of the post!
05:04I don't think he should have done, I think he should have scored,
05:07but it stays at nil-nil.
05:13McAteer's gone off,
05:15and the birthday boy, Bernardo Silva, comes on.
05:20Goes across to Guardiola,
05:22Guardiola up to the halfway line,
05:24to Nunes, Nunes away from Collier,
05:26and then he lost the ball,
05:28Pellistri comes away with it for United.
05:30United on the counter, as they love to do,
05:32with Fernandes, Fernandes into the gap for Garnaccio,
05:35City are stretched here, Garnaccio in the penalty area,
05:38Garnaccio into the corner of the net!
05:40It is City-nil, United-1.
05:43Alejandro Garnaccio scored the opening goal in the FA Cup final,
05:48he scores the opening goal in the Community Shield,
05:51and it might just be enough to win it.
05:57Pep Guardiola looks exasperated,
05:59City fans have been here and seen it many times before,
06:02City's record in the Community Shield has not been good.
06:06Kanji goes wide, now, chance for Oscar Bob,
06:09Bob comes forward, comes inside, looks up,
06:12backwards it goes to Lewis, Lewis out wide,
06:15City in the right-wing position.
06:18On it goes to Bob again, Bob in the penalty area,
06:21Dittleding in, Bernardo Silva,
06:23on his 30th birthday, makes it 1-1!
06:28Many, many happy returns, Bernardo,
06:31you've only been on the field a few minutes,
06:33but you can celebrate tonight,
06:35because you might just have sent this game to penalties.
06:39What a moment in this game,
06:41Savino, lovely little ball, Oscar Bob,
06:44it's that little reverse dummy, hits the byline,
06:47drifts the ball in, Bernardo attacks it so well,
06:51punches the header into the roof of the net,
06:54in front of those City supporters,
06:56and now we might be heading to penalties.
07:02Kanji in the right-back spot, helps it down the line,
07:05on it goes to Lewis, comes in off that line,
07:07in it goes to De Bruyne, picked off though by Martinez,
07:10and that's the end of 90 minutes,
07:13and so for the second year in a row,
07:15we are going to penalties in the Community Shield.
07:19So it's going to be Bruno Fernandes to take the first penalty
07:22of the shootout in the Community Shield
07:24at the United end of the ground,
07:26and he scores easily.
07:29Bernardo Silva.
07:33And he's had it saved by Onana.
07:37Dalot is next up.
07:39And saved! No, it's gone in.
07:42So Kevin De Bruyne, who only came on in stoppage time,
07:45can he put City back in the penalty shootout?
07:48He can easily.
07:51Don Accio runs forward and scores easily.
07:57Big smile on Haaland's face.
07:59Onana's trying the mind games.
08:01Haaland steps up and scores incredibly easily.
08:05Sancho up against Ederson.
08:08And he's...
08:10It was tipped by Ederson onto the post!
08:14Savino runs up, left-footed,
08:17and scores easily.
08:19And we are now all square in the shootout.
08:22Casabiro to make it 4-3.
08:25Does do easily.
08:28Ederson.
08:31I'm not sure there's a better penalty taker anywhere in the world.
08:35McTominay comes in, into the corner, good penalty.
08:39Ederson gets right, couldn't keep it out.
08:42Matias Nunez, right-footed,
08:44against Onana, into the roof of the net.
08:47You can't put it anywhere better.
08:52Beautiful penalty, you have to say, from the centre-half.
08:56Ruben Diaz, wearing the captain's armband, has to score.
09:01Run up now, comes up, shoots, scores easily.
09:06Johnny Evans is the man on whom all eyes are transfixed.
09:12Evans runs up and hits it over the bar.
09:15It was a real centre-half-type penalty.
09:20The Kanji, chance for redemption.
09:22Missed one, of course, in the shootout in the Euros for Switzerland.
09:26Can he win the Community Shield?
09:28He can indeed!
09:30And City have beaten United in the penalty shootout
09:34to win the Community Shield.
09:36City have the first trophy of the 24-25 season.
09:40City win the 2024 Community Shield
09:44by seven penalties to six after a 1-1 draw.
09:49And Manuel Akanji emerges as the hero.
