Manchester United needed a penalty shoot-out to capture the Community Shield despite producing a dominant display against Portsmouth at Wembley. Pompey failed to score three of their four spot-kicks to hand victory to Sir Alex Ferguson’s side. United had completely controlled the game but wasted a series of chances. Darren Fletcher somehow failed to turn in Nani’s cross and had a lob turned on to the bar by David James, who also denied Carlos Tevez with a superb stop.
