The 2023 FA Community Shield was the 101st FA Community Shield, an annual football match played between the winners of the previous season's Premier League and FA Cup competitions. It took place at Wembley Stadium on 6 August 2023.[3] As Manchester City won both the 2022–23 Premier League and the 2022–23 FA Cup, their opponents were the Premier League runners-up, Arsenal.
Arsenal won 4–1 on penalties after a 1–1 draw within 90 minutes.[1] This was Arsenal's first competitive trophy since winning the 2020 FA Community Shield, making City the first club to lose three Community Shield matches in a row since cross-city rival Manchester United's four between 1998 and 2001.[4] Arsenal also became the first Community Shield winners not to win either the league or FA Cup the previous season since Manchester United in 2010.
The match was initially planned to kick-off at 17:30 BST, however this was met with criticism from Manchester City fans who complained about its possible disruption to travelling to the match. Therefore, The Football Association moved kick-off to 16:00 instead on the same day.[5] The match was televised live on ITV1 and ITVX.[6]
Liverpool were the defending champions, but they did not qualify for this edition, having failed to win either the Premier League or FA Cup.
