It looked all over but you can never count this Arsenal side out and yes, it was very lucky, but Leandro Trossard came up with the goods with a last-minute deflected shot to equalise against the League Champions and take the Community Shield to penalties.
It was a game of ebb and flow and Arsenal had their chances but in all fairness, a draw after 90 minutes is probably a fair result.
Watch the video below, you will enjoy it, Mikel Arteta certainly did.
El fútbol ingles es… CINE: en el minuto 101, Trossard definió, la pelota se desvió y se metió, para el 1-1 del Arsenal contra el City en la #CommunityShield.

I really believe that Ramsdale needs to release the ball faster.
Overall it was a good performance.
Havertz can be used in that position. He needs to press more though.
I really like Trossard, we are lucky that he will be coming off the bench many times this season.
Trossard is lucky for us. He must play.
Timber very impressive
It’s really worrying watching Kai Havertz give so little, in a game he could’ve used to shine given the chances he was given.
He’s shocking!!
ESR came in late and gave far more than Havertz did. It’s really, really shocking watching him play.
I must admit i feel the same way re kai, i was let down infact i’ll commit the cardinal sin of rating nketiah’s cameo appearance than his,GO AHEAD AND SHOOT ME.
He was the most dangerous attacker and the most likely player to score in that game so am not worried about him he will score lots of goals and just remember it was Man city that Arsenal was up against not some pub teams so getting chances again city is always hard to come by.
Link up play was really good but he should have scored at least one of those chances. Pressing was below pat too but like u said, he might perform better against weaker oppositions.
I agree with you also
Lil maestro leooooo!!
Havertz will prove a great signing
I wonder If Jesus wasn’t injured, would Havertz have played instead of Partey?
My suspicion is, if he did, we would not have won the Community Shield.
I hate to keep going on about Havertz, so I will stop and let his football do the talking!!
What I believe is that partey and Declan will be the best combination soon,we prayed for times like this and now we are here.
