Is Manchester City cursed with Community Shield win?

Manchester City fans will be hoping for a repeat of what happened in the 2018/19 season when the Cityzens won the Premier League title after emerging winners of the Community Shield that season.
They edged out Liverpool that season to become the first club to retain the title in a decade.
That proved to be the odd year out as winners of the season-opening competition have lost on 12 other occasions in the last 13 years.
In 2019, the last time Man City won the Shield, they lost the Premier League title to Liverpool.
Pep Guardiola’s side has now lifted the 2024 English Community Shield after winning a penalty shootout 7-6 versus rivals Manchester United at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.
Alejandro Garnacho thought he had given Ten Hag’s side back-to-back Wembley victories with just nine minutes left to play following their FA Cup final success in the same stadium back in May, but Pep Guardiola’s side eventually prevailed.
Bernardo Silva’s close-range header in the 89th minute cancelled out Garnacho’s opener which forced the showpiece to spot-kicks.
Garnacho may have lost out eventually but, at 20 years and 40 days, he made history not only as the youngest player to score in the Community Shield since Cesc Fàbregas did for Arsenal against Chelsea in 2005 (18 years and 95 days), he has also become the youngest to do so for Manchester United since George Best did in 1965 (19 years and 84 days).
