== Match ==
=== Summary ===
Manchester City took the lead after 12 minutes when [[Kevin De Bruyne]] knocked the ball into the penalty area from the left to [[David Silva]] who flicked it to [[Raheem Sterling]] who scored from six yards out, hitting the ball with his left foot under Liverpool goalkeeper [[Alisson Becker|Alisson]] who almost managed to keep it out of the net. In the second half [[Virgil van Dijk]] had a shot from close range on the turn which came back off the underside of the bar and bounced out to safety. Liverpool equalized in the 77th minute when [[Joël Matip]] scored with a header from three yards out after a cross from the left by Virgil van Dijk.<ref>{{citewebcite web|url= https://www.bbc.com/sport/live/football/48968112|title = Liverpool 1 Man City 1 (Man city win 5-4 on penalties): Live|date=4 August 2019|work=BBC Sport|accessdateaccess-date=13 August 2019}}</ref>
[[Mohamed Salah]] had a late chance to win the game but his initial shot was saved by [[Claudio Bravo]] with Salah following up with a header which was hooked off the line by [[Kyle Walker]]. The match went to a penalty shoot-out with [[Georginio Wijnaldum]] the only player to miss, Claudio Bravo saving to his right. [[Gabriel Jesus]] scored the winning penalty shooting to the left past Alisson to decide the match.<ref>{{citewebcite web|url= https://www.theguardian.com/football/live/2019/aug/04/liverpool-v-manchester-city-community-shield-live|title = Liverpool 1 Man City 1 (Man city win 5-4 on penalties): as it happened|date=4 August 2019|work=Guardian|accessdateaccess-date=13 August 2019}}</ref>
