Community Shield LIVE: Chelsea 0-2 Manchester City score and goal updates as Sergio Aguero brace wins league champions the Community Shield The traditional season's curtain-raiser is upon us as Chelsea and Manchester City battle it out for the Community Shield. Cesc Fabregas has made the line up for charity clash despite a minor knee injury. France World Cup winners N'Golo Kante and Olivier Giroud, Belgium trio Eden Hazard, Thibaut Courtois and Michy Batshuayi, plus England's Gary Cahill, are yet to return following the tournament in Russia. New boss Mauricio Sarri said a similar side to the one which featured in pre-season would play at Wembley, meaning 17-year-old Callum Hudson-Odoi plays. Manchester City summer signing Riyad Mahrez comes into the side. The 27-year-old sustained an ankle injury last weekend but has been able to train ahead of the Wembley showpiece. Youngster Phil Foden also plays. Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling are the only players not to return to the group after the World Cup, with manager Pep Guardiola planning to go on condition over quality.
