It was played on 30 July 2022, with Liverpool defeating Manchester City 3–1 for their 16th FA Community Shield title and the club's first in 16 years.

[5] With the match played at the much-reduced capacity of Leicester City's stadium, there were 28,545 spectators, the lowest number for a Charity Shield or Community Shield game since 23,988 watched Burnley beat Manchester City 1–0 at Maine Road in 1973.

[8] In the 21st minute, Mohamed Salah passed to Trent Alexander-Arnold from the right and he opened the scoring with a curling effort from the edge of the box which took a slight deflection off Nathan Aké and nestled in the left corner of the net.

With twenty minutes to go, Manchester City equalised when Julián Alvarez scored by poking the ball into the net from close range after Liverpool goalkeeper Adrián had initially saved a shot from substitute Phil Foden.

[10] In the fourth minute of injury time, Núñez made it 3–1 when he stooped low to head the ball to the net after the ball was headed down to him from the left by Andrew Robertson after an initial cross from the right by Salah.
