Crystal Palace Stun Liverpool in Penalty Thriller to Clinch Unbelievable Community Shield Triumph
Liverpool attacked again late on, but apart from one effort from Salah which Henderson saved, there was practically nothing worthy of mention. In the 84th minute, Wirtz left the pitch to be replaced by Elliott, but to no tangible effect. Szoboszlai also had a go and prompted another save from Henderson in stoppage time, and Palace came close through Devenny, who had just replaced Guehi, but the shot trickled wide.
Deserved Palace victory
Though Liverpool had 60% of possession over the whole match, Palace certainly deserved this triumph. They stood up and raised their game when it was needed, forcing the Premier League champions to lose compass and exposing their defensive weaknesses.
