Manchester United Vs. Manchester City, 2011 Community Shield: Red Devils Come Back For 3-2 Victory
Just before halftime Dzeko doubled City’s lead. He found some space in the center and with no United defender bothering to close down he had a ambitious go at goal. It was a hard, low shot, but one that David de Gea should have saved. The new United signing failed to react to the darting ball and poorly let it in for City’s second of the match.
