Community shield: Arsenal beats Chelsea
Arsenal grabs there first trophy in 2015-16 season on sunday, beating Chelsea 1-0 in the community shield at Wembley.
In a tight contest arsenal missed several chances to beat Chelsea defence which was effortlessly deflected by Chelsea keeper Courtois but the breakthrough came from Oxlade-chamberlain on 24th minute who guided the ball to the right top corner and that too with his weaker foot. This is ox's first goal away from Emirates.
Arsenal won 20 matches from their 27 matches in all competition with 74℅ win ratio and continued from where they left off Sunday. Chelsea were in control but missed chances to equalize. The best chance for Chelsea came when Eden hazard clear through on goal but put it over the goal post after a heavy first touch. This was the first time Chelsea failed to score at Wembley from their last played 14 games, mourinho's men never looked dominating and were happy to play a defensive game mostly after the goal from chamberlain just to ignore any injuries before premier league. They made a attacking substitution when mourinho brings forward victor moses in place of john Terry but he didn't make any impact from the time he was in the field, its looks like mourinho wanted moses to up his confidence for the upcoming season. Game's pace got slowed with every substitution made by both the teams.
