Milan knocks out in a friendly against Arsenal in Dubai

The first friendly in Dubai del Milan ends in a 2-1 defeat against the Arsenal. Match compromised in the first half by goals from Odegaard on punishment and from Nelson on a mistake by Tatarusanu with his feet. In the second half Tomori the match reopens with an assist from Tonali. The Gunners also take the extra point in the penalty shootout after the match and win the Dubai Super Cup.

In fact, the Londoners had already won against Lyon both at the end of the 90 minutes and in the match following penalties, they lead the standings with 8 points and can no longer be reached by Milan, the French or even the team of Klopp (3-1 defeat by Lyon in recent days). The match between Milan-Liverpoolon Friday, will thus be irrelevant for the purposes of the Dubai Super Cup, but it will be another valuable test for Pioli to evaluate his players while awaiting the restart of Serie A.
