The E. P.L season for 2013/2014 started with the community shield , played between the E..P.L champions Manchester United verses the F.A winner Wigan Atletic, played on 11/8 2013 at the Wembley stadium.
The result was well and truly expected a victory for Manchester United who were the ruling E.P.L champions and a small club relegated last year.. A David and Goliath match you could say..
But this is football and anything can happen. here.
Let us take the case of Portsmouth playing Chelsea in the F.A final. Portsmouth was already relegated and was going into the hands of a administrator then. But Portsmouth won the match 1-0 with a goal from Kanu. Now here Chelsea were the E.P.L champions then.
In this match Robin Van Persie scored two goals, one was a header.
It was a hollow victory for David Moyes, as the team played a unimpressive game, it was his first trophy.
And Manchester United failed to buy big stars this time.
