Riccardo Calafiori opened the scoring in Sunday’s Community Shield match between Arsenal and Manchester City, scoring within the first minute against Italy teammate Gianluigi Donnarumma.
A solid piece of work from Myles Lewis-Skelly allowed the Englishman to find a neat pass through to the Italian defender, who slotted the ball near-post as Donnarumma dived the wrong way.
It is a nightmare start for Enzo Maresca in what is his first competitive game since replacing Pep Guardiola after the legendary Spanish coach stepped down at the end of last season.
Riccardo Calafiori gives Arsenal the lead after just 24 seconds 🤯
