Video: Chelsea beat Man Utd on penalties in Community Shield
Highlights of Chelsea’s morale-boosting win at Wembley, including: Nani’s excellent solo goal, Michael Ballack’s “elbow” on Patrice Evra (from which Chelsea scored their second goal, much to Fergie and his players’ chagrin) and United’s abject batch of penalties:
Decent game, not that I was ever going to schedule my weekend around it.
Btw, that’s twice in two weeks that United have lost a meaningless game on a penalty shootout. What does this mean? Not much really.

Thought it was a pretty good game for a normally quite dull community sheild and chelsea probly deserved to win. Ballacks ‘elbow’ was a foul and a booking but if it was anyone else other than united there would be a lot less whinging, if united had scored when they played on fergie would probly be saying what a good job the ref did! plus think you can take evra off that ‘hardman’ list now, he went down like a sack of potatoes!
Evra’s penalty here or Berbatovs in the F.A Cup semi-final, whcih was worst?
