The 2022 FA Community Shield was the 100th FA Community Shield, an annual football match played between the winners of the previous season's Premier League and the winners of the previous season's FA Cup. It was played on 30 July 2022, with Liverpool defeating Manchester City 3–1 for their 16th FA Community Shield title, the first in 16 years.[4]

Due to the hosting of the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 final, the match took place away from the usual Wembley Stadium for the first time in 10 years, and was instead played at Leicester City's King Power Stadium.[5] With the match played at the much-reduced capacity of Leicester City's stadium, there were 28,545 spectators, the lowest number for a Charity Shield or Community Shield game since 23,988 watched Burnley beat Manchester City 1–0 at Maine Road in 1973.[3]

The game was televised live in the United Kingdom on ITV.[6]

Background

Main articles: 2021–22 Liverpool F.C. season and 2021–22 Manchester City F.C. season

Liverpool obtained their FA Community Shield position by virtue of their victory in the 2021–22 FA Cup, having defeated Chelsea 6–5 on penalties following a 0–0 draw a.e.t. in the final.[7] Manchester City won their spot after winning the 2021–22 Premier League. This was a rematch of the 2019 Community Shield, which Manchester City had won on penalties.[8]

Match

Summary

In the 21st minute, Mohamed Salah passed to Trent Alexander-Arnold from the right and he opened the scoring with a curling effort from the edge of the box which took a slight deflection off Nathan Aké and nestled in the left corner of the net. With twenty minutes to go, Manchester City equalised when Julián Álvarez scored by poking the ball into the net from close range after Liverpool goalkeeper Adrián had initially saved a shot from substitute Phil Foden.[9] The goal was awarded after a lengthy VAR check. With seven minutes left, Liverpool were awarded a penalty after Rúben Dias had handled a header from substitute Darwin Núñez with his right hand inside the penalty area. Salah scored the penalty with a low shot to the right corner.[10] In the fourth minute of injury time, Núñez made it 3–1 when he stooped low to head the ball to the net after the ball was headed down to him from the left by Andrew Robertson after an initial cross from the right by Salah.[11]
