While many lament the loss of tradition in today’s football landscape, the Community Shield has remained a constant presence in the English game for over 100 years.  Crystal Palace won their first ever Community Shield title as they defeated Liverpool 3-2 on penalties after the game ended in a 2-2 thrilling draw in regulation time.
 
Though its prestige has diminished over time, much like other domestic competitions, the fixture still signals the unofficial start of the new season. To some, it’s seen as little more than a high-profile friendly, but it continues to hold a place on the football calendar.
 
 
The format of the Community Shield has evolved since its first edition in 1908. It wasn’t until 1930 that the match regularly featured the league champions against the FA Cup winners. The version we now recognize was formalized in 1974 by then-FA Secretary Ted Croker.
 
While it may not be considered a major piece of silverware, clubs still count Community Shield wins among their historical achievements.
