Arsenal have won the Community Shield after beating Liverpool 5-4 on penalties at Wembley, following a 1-1 draw after extra time.

The FA Cup winners prevailed over the Premier League champions in the traditional curtain raiser of the English season on Saturday evening.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang opened the scoring for Mikel Arteta‘s side when he found the far corner inside the first 12 minutes of the match.

It took until the 73rd minute for Liverpool to find an equaliser when Takumi Minamino slotted past Emiliano Martinez from close range.

Aubameyang scored the winning penalty after Rhian Brewster had hit the crossbar in the only missed spot kick during the shootout.
