🇨🇦 Jessie Fleming celebrated her first silverware with Chelsea with a win over Manchester City in the Community Shield, marking the return of English women’s soccer after a six-month, pandemic-enforced absence.

LONDON — Canadian international Jessie Fleming celebrated her first silverware with Chelsea on Saturday in a 2-0 win over Manchester City in the Community Shield, marking the return of English women’s soccer after a six-month, pandemic-enforced absence.

Fleming, who signed with Chelsea in late July, has won 77 caps for Canada. The 26-year-old Beckie, born in Colorado to parents from Saskatchewan, joined Manchester City in August 2018 from Sky Blue FC. She has 31 goals in 70 appearances for Canada. The Community Shield was contested in the women’s game for the first time in 12 years. It was part of a double-header at Wembley, with the curtain-raiser to the men’s season between Premier League champion Liverpool and FA Cup winner Arsenal taking place later on Saturday.

Erin Cuthbert powered the second goal into the roof of the net in the second minute of stoppage time at Wembley Stadium before empty stands.
