Real Madrid 3 AC Milan 1: Higuain goal not enough for Rossoneri

Goals from Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale and Borja Mayoral gave Real Madrid a confident win in Saturday's friendly meeting with AC Milan.

Gonzalo Higuain's first AC Milan goal proved inconsequential as Real Madrid warmed up for the UEFA Super Cup with an entertaining 3-1 friendly win.

Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale netted either side of Higuain's classy curling finish before substitute Borja Mayoral capped off the hosts' third successive pre-season victory in stoppage time.

Mayoral's goal came courtesy of a rebound from Luka Modric's intial effort, the Inter transfer target having returned via the bench for his first 15 minutes of action since the World Cup.
