Penalty Shootout 4-1
FA Community Shield, 06 August 2017.
0-1 Victor Moses
1-1 Kolasinac
Arsenal 1 Chelsea 1 (4-1 Pens): Courtois and Morata blunder In Shoot-Out
It's arguably a deserved victory for Arsenal, who, over the course of the game, were the slightly better side. They conceded a poor goal just after the break but went back on top after that, and they caused Chelsea plenty of problems towards the end of the game as the Blues began to drop off.
Chelsea won 4-1 on penalties the last time a Community Shield was decided by a shootout, but this time they were on the receiving end of a disappointing defeat. They did well to go in front early in the second half before losing their way towards the end, allowing Arsenal to get back into the game and find a late equaliser through Kolasinac.
Arsenal defeated Chelsea in a dramatic penalty shoot-out to open the new English season with silverware.
Thibaut Courtois and Alvaro Morata missed from the spot as Arsenal claimed the Community Shield by beating 10-man Chelsea 4-1 on penalties.
After a 1-1 draw in regulation time, the shoot-out saw goalkeeper Courtois, an unusual choice to take his side's second penalty, bizarrely firing his attempt way over.
