Goalkeepers Joel Pereira and Jose Reina makes multiple saves as preseason International Champions Cup friendly ends in dramatic style
Alexis Sanchez was on target as Manchester United defeated AC Milan on penalties in their International Champions Cup friendly in Los Angeles.
Chilean international Sanchez was United’s best performer in a low-key game at Carson’s StubHub Centre which finished 1-1.
Sanchez fired United into the lead with a well-taken goal on 12 minutes before Spanish midfielder Suso equalised for Milan three minutes later.
Although Sanchez produced a lively performance for United, the Premier League giants were unable to find a further goal, sending the game to penalties.
A bizarre shoot-out was won 9-8 by United, with both teams having to recycle their penalty takers after a string of missed spot-kicks.
