United retained the Community Shield after another penalty shootout win at Wembley. United dominated the 90 minutes and due to some outstanding saves from David James (again!!) and some dogged defending from the Portsmouth defence, Pompey prevented United winning in the 90 minutes. Man of the Match Carlos Tevez was twarted by James several times. Darren Fletcher missed the best chance as well as hitting the bar. Tevez, Giggs and Carrick scored their penalties, with Defoe being the only Pompey player to hit the target, as United ran out 3-1 penalty shootout winners.
