OLIVER HOLT IN CARDIFF: When the curtain went up on the new Premier League season at the Principality Stadium, Manchester City recoiled at what they saw.
Arsenal eased to victory over Man City in the Community Shield to claim the first silverware of the season, with the Premier League champions making the perfect start through Riccardo Calafiori.

The reigning Premier League champions laid down something of a marker with a comprehensive victory that will leave new City boss Enzo Maresca contemplating the size of the task ahead of him. First-half goals from Riccardo Calafiori and Kai Havertz set the Gunners on their way, before Odegaard iced the cake with a superb solo effort just after half-time. By his own high standards, the Norway international endured a difficult campaign last time around with injury hampering him and Eberechi Eze providing a genuine threat to his starting role.

After a successful World Cup campaign, Odegaard looks to be back to his best and a stunning display against City vindicated his decision to return to pre-season earlier than expected. ‘These moments are great for these players because it gives them a new confidence,’ Keown told TNT Sports, watching Odegaard and his teammates celebrate the win. ‘I saw Odegaard with a new swagger in his play. For large parts of last year maybe he wasn’t at his best but he certainly looked like it today, some real creativity from him. Martin Odegaard was back to his best against Man City (Picture: Getty) ‘I talked about his swagger coming back and those connections. There was nutmegs, little changes of direction, it just seems it’s all coming back again. ‘He sat the goalkeeper down beautifully for the goal, a top goalkeeper by the way. He looks like he’s comning back with a new intention, he came back earlier by all accounts. ‘He hasn’t had much of a break because he missed so much of last season so he can afford to do that. ‘The manager gave him a large chunk of this match, he’s going to come under pressure but he’s handling it really well and that’s what the manager wants. He wants him to play is football and it looks like it’s there.’ Take a bow, Martin Ødegaard 😮💨Arsenal are flying against Man City!📺 Watch live on TNT Sports & HBO Max pic.twitter.com/cMHbIyJ90D— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) August 16, 2026 Those sentiments were echoed by BBC pundit and former Chelsea winger Pat Nevin who fears that a rejuvenated Odegaard underlines Arsenal’s status as title favourites. He said: ‘Martin Odegaard looked back to his very, very best and it’s like a new, brilliant signing. Eze back up and running, like a new signing as well. Madueke had a number of injuries last season, Kai Havertz as well. ‘They probably only need one more signing and they are, by some distance, the team to beat this season.’ Odegaard, himself, meanwhile was delighted with the performance of his team and insists he and his colleagues are hungry for more trophies. Martin Odegaard scored Arsenal’s third goal against Man City (Picture: Getty) He said: ‘We played some brilliant football. Great performance and a great way to start the season. ‘I always want to help the team as much possible with goals and assists. I want to score more goals. ‘We showed our level today. We’re showed we’re ready. We’re serious and we want to do it again. ‘We want to attack it. We want to do it again. When you get a taste of how nice it is you want to do it again. ‘We want to win everything.’ Comment now Comments Add Metro as a Preferred Source on Google Add as preferred source

Martin Odegaard scored Arsenal’s third to seal the win against Manchester City. Enzo Maresca’s era started off in the worst possible way, with rivals Arsenal completely dominating them. Mikel Arteta’s side made a lighting start to the game, with Riccardo Calafiori giving the Premier League champions the lead inside a minute, courtesy of a fantastic […] The post Watch: Martin Odegaard sits down Gianluigi Donnarumma before scoring Arsenal’s third to seal the win appeared first on CaughtOffside.
Arsenal's 3-0 win over Manchester City is the biggest margin of victory in a Community Shield game since 2014, when the Gunners beat the same opponent by the same scoreline. Enzo Maresca suffered the joint-heaviest defeat by a Manchester City manager in their first game, with Harry Newbould in 1906 the only previous one to lose by 3+ goals (1-4 v Arsenal). City's 0-3 loss is Maresca's joint-heaviest defeat as a manager in English football, having only once previously lost by a 3+ goal margin (Chelsea 0-3 Brighton in February 2025).

For Enzo Maresca, a miserable first competitive game in charge of Manchester City that began with Arsenal seizing the lead after 24.5 seconds ended with Mikel Arteta’s side lifting the Community Shield. Arsenal eviscerated City, Riccardo Calafiori’s smart opener after Myles Lewis-Skelly’s brilliant pass seemingly leaving their opponents with irrecoverable damage. Kai Havertz doubled Arsenal’s lead on 28 minutes and Martin Ødegaard in effect sealed the win three minutes into the second half, fooling Gianluigi Donnarumma in the City goal before finishing. On this evidence, the post-Pep era could be trickier than widely envisaged.Calafiori’s early strike in Cardiff provided the perfect tonic for Arsenal to continue the party atmosphere that electrified their Premier League title parade across north London at the end of May. The importance of this victory will be debated but by winning this competition, back at the Principality Stadium for the first time since 2006 owing to The Weeknd’s gig at Wembley, they have put down an impressive marker as they look to build on last season’s success. City, without Rodri amid doubts over his future, lacked any semblance of control. The England midfielder Elliot Anderson struggled on his competitive debut after his £116m move from Nottingham Forest. Continue reading...
