Reaction after Arsenal beat Chelsea on penalties in season-opening English Community Shield

Monday, August 07 2017 by 7MTV
  • SOUNDBITE: (English) Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager:
    (on the team spirit in his squad)
    "You know, it's down to us to keep a positive atmosphere around the team. I think a lot was created by my own (contract) situation and maybe I made a mistake but overall I believe it's down to us and the trend has always got to come from the team."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Antonio Conte, Chelsea manager:
    (on Pedro's red card)
    "For sure, there is disappointment to finish for the second time with ten men against Arsenal, before in the FA Cup (final) and now the Community Shield. I didn't see the images and also I didn't see the yellow card for Willian (for an alleged dive). A lot of people told me that the penalty was clear, but for sure there is a bit of frustration but you know very well we have to respect referees' decisions. But sometimes the decisions make you a bit angry."
