The new season of each national league starts with the Super Cup, but the name of each country is different, it is called the Super Cup in other places, but in England this cup is called the Community Shield.

It was a match between last season's Premier League and FA Cup winners.

Manchester City won the competition last season.

There used to be a curse in the Community Shield, which meant that whoever won the Community Shield at the beginning of the season would definitely not win the league title.

However, the spell didn't last long before it was broken.

It was rarely mentioned before Manchester City.

Manchester City won the Community Shield last season and also won the league title last season.

Manchester City competed in the Community Shield last season as FA Cup winners.

Last season, Manchester City won the league title but lost the FA Cup.

So this time they came to the Community Shield as league champions against Chelsea, with Carlo Ancelotti's side not winning the FA Cup last season without winning against Manchester City.

It is also a continuation of last season's rivalry between the two teams that fought it out until the last place competed in the Community Shield.

Before this game, because many players participated in the World Cup, the pre-season training camp was not well attended, so Benitez did not plan to send the strongest squad for this Community Shield match.

It can also give players who are new to the team a chance to show their talents.

However, the biggest concern is whether Glory and Ibrahimovic will start at the same time in this game.

City had played four warm-up games before that, and none of those four games had the same starting line-up, with Rafa Benitez experimenting with a mix of personnel.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if Benitez did it on purpose, in the various lineup combinations of these four games, Glory and Ibrahimovic have never played on the pitch at the same time......

So will the Community Shield be the first time the two will play side by side?

※※※

From the transfer to Manchester City to now, Ibrahimovic has also been in this new team for more than a month, and he and Glory have nothing to do with each other, thanks to Glory for being elusive, generally speaking, Ibrahimovic rarely meets Glory when he is in the dressing room, and Glory is also training when he meets Glory on the training ground, and the two have never been alone once, which also avoids embarrassment.

But Ibrahimovic doesn't think that's fine, in fact, he has always cared about this matter in his heart - what does Glory think about coming to Manchester City, does he wonder why he chose Manchester City, and what does he think about his arrival in his heart?

These thoughts fill Ibrahimovic's mind, and occasionally cause Ibrahimovic minor troubles, such as wandering in training......

Such thoughts had a deeper and deeper impact on Ibrahimovic, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore.

He decided to go straight to the point and ask Glory for an explanation. Whatever glory thought of him, he had to know.

Three days before the Community Shield, Glory returned to the locker room after all the day's training.

To his surprise, there was a person sitting in the locker room, which should have been empty in the past.

Ibrahimovic sat in his place with a golden sword, and when he saw Glory come in, he was not surprised, but just stared at Glory.

And his eyes have been locked on Rongguang's body, and with Rongguang, he has been moving, at first he just moved his eyes, and then he twisted his neck directly, and he stared at Rongguang anyway.

Glory also looked at Ibrahimovic in turn.

"Rong." Ibrahimovic finally spoke.

"Huh? What's the matter? Glory replied.

"I have a question, Rong." Ibrahimovic said.

"What's the problem?"

"Don't you want to know why I came to Manchester City?"

"It's not self-depraved anyway." Rongguang said.

Ibrahimovic rolled his eyes, when Rongguang went to Manchester City before, he called him angrily and accused him of being willing to degenerate, but he didn't expect Rongguang to use this to mock himself now.

"I came to Manchester City to win the title." Ibrahimovic said. "I want revenge on Barcelona and Pep Guardiola."

Glory thought of what he had said to Snead before, but he didn't expect it to really become the "Avengers......

"You must be laughing at me in your heart, right?" Ibrahimovic said, staring at glory.

Rongguang shook his head: "How is it possible?" ”

"Don't deny it, you must have done it." Ibrahimovic said it categorically. "But it doesn't matter, since I'm here, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Laugh at me, but I'm going to get revenge on Barcelona! ”

Ibrahimovic clenched his fists as he spoke.

"I'm going to win the title at Manchester City, beat Barcelona and prove to them that I'm the best centre-forward! Giving up on me was their biggest mistake! ”

Ibrahimovic stood up after speaking indignantly.

Then he walked straight to the door of the locker room.

"The day after tomorrow, I'll prove it with the championship - I'm here to win it!"

With that, he left the locker room.

Glory looked at the door after he left, stunned for a moment, and then shrugged his shoulders and went to take a shower.

He didn't quite understand why Ibrahimovic was saying this to himself.

Is it just for yourself?

He also waited in the locker room to tell himself after finishing training...... As for it?

※※※

Glory didn't understand why Ibrahimovich was saying this specifically to himself.

But Ibrahimovic, who left the dressing room, was in a good mood and even had a smile on his face.

He told Rongguang all the words that he had held in his heart, and got a not too bad result. Glory didn't laugh at himself to a great deal of relief.

But the happiest thing about Ibrahimovic is not that Glory didn't laugh at himself, but that he finally put an end to this matter.

He can now concentrate on facing the Community Shield against Chelsea.

He knows the speculation of the outside media about his relationship with Glory, although he has come to Manchester City, it does not mean that he wants to be friends with Glory.

As he told Rongguang, he came here to win the championship. In order to win the championship, he can not fall out with Glory and keep the peace.

That's what he meant when he told Glory about his intentions - I'm here to win the championship, and I'm not interested in the grudge between us.

Judging by Glory's reaction, Glory's thoughts should be the same as Ibrahimovic's.

None of them will focus on the relationship between the two people, they will not maintain a good relationship in order to show unity in front of the media, but they will not have nothing to do and quarrel in the locker room.

※※※

From the moment Ibrahimovic arrived at Manchester City, the media were expecting his bomb to explode.

Quarrel with teammates in the locker room and PK with Glory on the training ground......

But none of this happened.

Now they have an expectation to see what Ibrahimovic will do to Glory in official matches, when they start at the same time as Zlatan Ibrahimovic......

Will the two of them not pass the ball to each other?

With his current status, all his previous experiences have long since been dug up by journalists, so his experiences in São Paulo are not a secret.

Everyone knows that he had a bad relationship with Kaka when he was in São Paulo, and how bad is the relationship between the two of them?

Haven't passed the ball to each other for almost a season!

So will he and Ibrahimovic do the same this season?

If he and Ibrahimovic ignore each other entirely, it will be difficult for the two men to connect and City's attack will have to go their separate ways.

This is not the outcome Benitez wants.

But the media may be eager for that to happen......

Three days later, Manchester City and Chelsea gathered at the new Wembley Stadium for the Community Shield.

This match also marks the official start of the new Premier League season.

For Manchester City, Glory and Ibrahimovic started the game, but David Silva did not play, and it was James Milner who replaced him.

Sneijder also did not start, with Elano replacing him. Although Elano was given a start in this game, there are rumours that Elano will definitely leave Manchester City.

Manchester City are undergoing a not-so-obvious purge......

Elsewhere, Matuidi, Gareth Barry, Lucio and Kompany, Zabaleta and Barnes, Joe Hart.

These are similar to last season's main lineups, with the biggest change being the attacking mix.

The reporters in the media table all focused on Rongguang and Ibrahimovic who appeared on the stage, and the TV broadcaster also knew everyone's thoughts, and after giving Rongguang a close-up, he immediately gave Ibrahimovic a close-up.

But no one was able to find anything in the expressions of the two men.

The suspense can only be saved for the game.

As captain, Glory lost on the sidelines, so City got the kick-off.

Glory and Milner, who had just joined the team, were on either side of the ball, ready to kick off, and Ibrahimovic stood not far behind them, in the centre circle.

Once all the players were in place, the referee blew the whistle and Glory gently rubbed the ball out of the way, and then he headed to the side.

Ibrahimovic, meanwhile, also crossed the halfway line and sprinted into the Chelsea half.

Milner sent the ball straight back.

Manchester City's first competitive game of the season has finally begun. It was also the first time that Glory and Ibrahimovic started at the same time in a match!

What kind of sparks will the two of them create?

Will this spark ignite the passion of the team, or will it burn the whole team?
