Community Shield: Man City Refuse To Collect Runners-Up Medals

Community Shield runners-up, Manchester City chose not to collect their losers medals after losing 3-1 to Liverpool on Saturday.

Julian Alvarez’s debut goal for City only proved to be a consolation.

According to ITV Sport, runners-up medals were on offer for the losing side, but City decided not to collect their tokens.

It remains to be seen whether they left the stadium with medals in-hand or indeed they will just be sent to the club.
