2025 FA Community Shield

TheFootball Association Community Shield (formerly theCharity Shield) is an annual match inEnglish football contested atWembley Stadium between the champions of the previousPremier League season and the holders of theFA Cup. If the same team wins both the league and the FA Cup, the match is played against the Premier League runners-up. The fixture is recognised as a competitivesuper cup bythe Football Association[1][2][3] andUEFA.[4][5][6]

Organised by the FA, the match generates proceeds that are directed towards community initiatives and charitable causes across the country. Revenue from ticket sales and match programmes is distributed among the 124 clubs that took part in the FA Cup from the first round proper onwards, with each club nominating charities or projects to receive the funds. The remaining balance is allocated to the FA's national charity partners.[7] First played in the1908–09 season as a replacement for theSheriff of London Charity Shield, the match has since become a regular fixture.

The current holders are2024–25 FA Cup winnersCrystal Palace, who defeated2024–25 Premier League championsLiverpool in the2025 fixture, winning 3–2 on penalties following a 2–2 draw.

History

[edit]

The Community Shield evolved from theSheriff of London Charity Shield, introduced in1898,[8] which was originally contested between teams of professionals and amateurs, reflecting the 'gentlemen and players' tradition.[9] The Football Association Charity Shield, as it was then known, was created to replace the Sheriff of London Charity Shield after leading amateur clubs became estranged from the FA.[10] The inaugural match in1908 was played betweenManchester United, the Football League First Division champions, andQueens Park Rangers, the Southern League champions. After a 1–1 draw in the first game, United won 4–0 in the replay, marking the only occasion the Shield required a second leg. Both matches were played atStamford Bridge.[8]

The format of the competition varied in its early years. In 1913 it featured Amateurs versus Professionals XIs, and in 1921 the Shield was first contested between the Football League and FA Cup winners. Throughout the 1920s the fixture often continued the amateur versus professional theme, including the1927 match betweenCardiff City as FA Cup holders andthe Corinthians representing the amateurs. In 1930 the competition settled into its now-familiar format of pitting the league champions against the FA Cup winners, with few exceptions. Notable deviations include the1950 Shield between the England national team and an FA team returning from a tour of Canada,[8] and the1961 fixture where double-winningTottenham Hotspur played a Football Association XI.[11]

The match has been held at the start of the season since 1959.[11] Situations where one club won both the league and FA Cup created inconsistencies in opposition. In 1971,Arsenal declined to participate due to prior commitments, soLeicester City, as Second Division champions, faced FA Cup runners-upLiverpool and won the trophy, despite having never previously won the League or FA Cup.[12] In 1972 and1973, several clubs declined invitations, leading to irregular pairings such as Manchester City versusAston Villa andBurnley.[13] In 1974, FA secretaryTed Croker formalised the modern format of league champions versus FA Cup winners, hosted annually atWembley Stadium.[8] Between 1949 and 1991, eleven editions of the Shield were shared following drawn results,[14] but since 1993, penalty shoot-outs have been used to determine a winner.[8]

The formation of thePremier League in 1992 led to the Shield becoming a showcase between the Premier League and FA Cup winners starting from the1993 edition. In 2002, theCharity Commission ruled that the Football Association had failed to fulfil its charitable obligations, including delays in disbursing funds and a lack of transparency over gate revenue allocation.[15] This led to the competition being renamed the Community Shield.[16]Arsenal won the first edition under the new name, defeatingLiverpool 1–0.[17]

Trophy

[edit]

In 2016, the FA's official silverware supplier,Thomas Lyte, restored and rebuilt the original 1908 Shield to mark the 50th anniversary ofEngland’s1966 FIFA World Cup triumph. The trophy was then auctioned for £40,000 to support the Bobby Moore Fund forCancer Research UK, which became the FA’s official charity partner that year.[18][19] The auction was held at TheRoyal Garden Hotel inKensington, the same venue where England had celebrated their 1966 victory.

In 2002, Thomas Lyte made the present day Community Shield, and restores it annually. They also designed and make the medals for both the winners and runners-up.[20]

Rules

[edit]

The rules of the Community Shield are generally the same as those of thePremier League, with a team of 11 starting players and 7 substitutes. However, unlike in most other competitions where only five substitutions are permitted, teams in the Community Shield are permitted up to six substitutions. If the scores are level after 90 minutes, the teams play a penalty shootout.[21] If a team wins both the Premier League and theFA Cup, the runners-up from the Premier League will be the opposition.[22]

Status

[edit]

Serving as England'ssuper cup between the previous season'sPremier League champions andFA Cup winners, the Community Shield is regarded as the "curtain-raiser" and is the first competitive game of each top-flight English football season.[23][24][25] However, it has been treated with varying degrees of seriousness by participating teams, with some using it similarly tofriendlies in their pre-season schedule – as an opportunity to give match practice to fringe members of their squads or those returning from injury. BBC Sport punditMark Lawrenson andThe Guardian writer Tom Bryant both described the match as a "glorified friendly".[26][27] Prior to the2008 FA Community Shield, Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson summarised his opinion of the competition: "The Community Shield is a prestigious match but I have used players in it who were not quite fit... it's always a game we never quite use as a do or die thing; we use it as a barometer for fitness".[28][29]

Others, however, continue to recognise the status of the match as the first official game and trophy of the domestic season.[30][31][32] Ahead of the2016 FA Community Shield against Manchester United, Leicester City managerClaudio Ranieri asked, "Why do you say this question, a friendly? When is the Community Shield a friendly? Of course we will be at the maximum and Manchester United will be at their maximum. The two teams want to win. I am very excited."[24] The following year,Chelsea managerAntonio Conte affirmed the significance of the cup, stating "It is not a friendly game. It is an official game and there is a trophy so for us it must be important" ahead of his side's clash withArsenal.[33] Likewise in 2018,Manchester City managerPep Guardiola referred to his side's clash with Chelsea in the competition as "the first final" of the season.[34] Before winning his first community shield, formerLiverpool managerJürgen Klopp said "It would be nice if we could win it. It's the last domestic cup we haven't won."[35]

  • The highest scoring game was Manchester United's 8–4 win againstSwindon Town in1911.[8]
  • Everton hold the record for most consecutive wins (4) from 1984 to 1987; however, the 1986 'win' was shared withLiverpool.Manchester United hold the record for most consecutive losses (4) from 1998 to 2001.

In the five years that the Charity Shield was contested by the winners of the Football League and Southern League between 1908 and 1912, this was the only occasion on which the Southern League champions prevailed. The victory remains Brighton's only national honour to date and they were crowned the 'Champions of all England'.[36]
