Manchester City were forced to change their caption on an Instagram post during the Community Shield.
The Blues succumbed to Arsenal at Wembley Stadium, losing 4-1 in a penalty shootout on Sunday.
Last season's treble winners opened the scoring in normal time through Cole Palmer, who curled a stunning strike in the 77th minute.
Leandro Trossard's deflected strike deep, deep into injury time took the clash into a penalty shootout.

The Gunners scored all four of their penalties, with Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri fluffing their lines from the spot. The Belgium smashed the crossbar while Aaron Ramsdale saved the Spaniard's effort.
Fabio Vieira converted the winning penalty as they pip Pep Guardiola's side to the Community Shield.
But Man City thought they had the title sewn up following Palmer's goal. Well, that's judging by their post on social media.

The club shared a picture of Kyle Walker celebrating, accompanied with the caption: "That winning feeling."
However, following Arsenal's late equaliser, they had to change it, switching the caption: "Passion!"
Arsenal head into the new season with a trophy in the bag as they open their 2023/24 campaign against Nottingham Forest.
Man City, on the other hand, begin the defence of their crown away at Vincent Kompany's Burnley.
