Full Video Highlights Barcelona 0-0 Manchester United (2-0 Penalties)


Having seen Wayne Rooney miss a penalty in normal time, Nani and Ashley Young then also missed in a rather odd three-kick shootout in which Xavi and Gerard Pique scored, to hand victory to Barcelona after this friendly had ended scoreless after 90 minutes. Results in pre-season games don’t matter, of course. Nobody should pretend they should. But in truth, United struggled to contain Barcelona for long periods of what was a relatively entertaining friendly game.

Full Video Highlights Real Madrid 5-1 LA Galaxy


Real Madrid scored early and it scored often. The first goal came in only the second minute, when Angel Di Maria dummied inside from the right flank and slipped a pass into the box. Gonzalo Higuain, whose brother Federico recently signed for MLS with the Columbus Crew, only needed one touch to put the ball in the back of the net. Di Maria scored his own less than 10 minutes later. He skipped past his marker after Diarra found him open and beat Josh Saunders near post. The Galaxy pulled one back midway through the first half. David Beckham floated a trademark free kick into the box. Omar Gonzalez headed the ball back across goal and David Junior Lopes, who scored against Tottenham last week, bundled it into the net.  Madrid made sure it entered the half with a two-goal cushion courtesy of Jose Callejon. Higuain passed straight through the Galaxy backline and Callejon's run lost Lopes, leaving the youngster with an easy finish. Within minutes of the wholesale changes at halftime (no player from either team started both halves), Esteban Granero chipped the LA defensive line and Alvaro Morata scored. In the last few minutes Los Blancos capped off the game with a gorgeous flowing move. Karim Benzema made a diagonal run across the field, playing a one-two to keep his surge going, and passed to Mesut Ozil on the right. The German cut the ball back into the box and Jesse Rodriguez finished it off.

Full Video Highlights Bayern Munich 15-0 Paulaner


In today's Paulaner Cup de Sudens, the "Paulaner Dream Team" had to know they were going to be badly out-gunned. But perhaps they didn't realize exactly how badly, as FC Bayern romped in the sponsored friendly by a final of 15-0. This certainly wasn't much of a test, but it was good to see the midfield and forwards working together and moving the ball around cleanly. Gomez obviously had a big day, but Ribery and Shaqiri also had some moments of brilliance (again ... consider the opposition).

Full Video Highlights Tottenham Hotspurs 2-1 New York Red Bulls



Tottenham rounded off its pre-season tour of the US with victory on Wednesday evening, after two moments of class from Gareth Bale and Gylfi Sigurdsson saw off New York Red Bulls 2-1. Kenny Cooper had given the MLS side an early lead from the penalty spot, and while Spurs initially struggled to find their rhythm in the opening 45 minutes, the north Londoners soon kicked into gear in the second half as they secured a comfortable win ahead of their return to British shores. Tim Cahill was handed his debut at Red Bull Arena following his switch from Everton to the MLS last week. The Australian midfielder made an immediate impact, finding himself through on goal after latching onto a ball in behind Jan Vertonghen which in turn forced the Belgian center back to foul him in the box.

Full Video Highlights Manchester City 3-1 Malaysia All-Stars




Aguero opened the scoring with a stylish solo effort, jinking his way past three challenges before stabbing the ball over Mohd Farizal Marlias. The Argentine then turned provider with a perfectly-weighted through ball to Carlos Tevez, who finished well into the bottom corner two minutes into the second half. Aguero was the architect again for the third with a lofted ball to Adam Johnson, who slotted into the goal, before Azamuddin Akil claimed a consolation for the hosts after Pablo Zabaleta's error.
