Update on yesterday’s game: Real Madrid vs AC Milan
Madrid, a well-known Spanish side, came from a 2-0 deficit to win the friendly 3-2. Milan took the lead after 25 minutes when England defender Fikayo Tomori headed in a perfectly placed Christian Pulisic corner to make it 1-0. Luka Romero’s great long-range strike that hit the top corner of the net increased the Serie A side’s lead to 2-0 just before half-time. However, Milan goalkeeper Marco Sportiello made a disastrous error in the 57th minute when he failed to easily parry Federico Valverde’s long-range shot, giving Madrid a chance of a draw. Valverde took the chance and leveled the score for Madrid two minutes later with a skillful shot. Brazil star Vinicius Jr completed the comeback for Madrid with an 84th-minute winner.
