First real victory for Milan in the second friendly of the Asian tour. The Rossoneri after losing 1-0 but then winning on penalties against Arsenal won 4-2 against Liverpool.

At the Kai Tak Sports Partk in Hong Kong, Massimiliano Allegri once again deployed Rafael Leao as the first forward and it took the Portuguese only ten minutes to unlock the result on an assist from Pulisic.

The champions of England tied the score on 26′ with Szoboszlai but in the opening minutes of the second half Loftus-Cheek and Okafor signed in eight minutes two goals that effectively decided the match.

In the midst of the recovery Gakpo shortened the gap but as time nearly expired Okafor completed his one-two by closing the score definitively.
