Match Events
Leon Goretzka scored the only goal of the match as Marco Giampaolo's first game in charge of AC Milan resulted in a 1-0 loss to Bayern Munich at the International Champions Cup.
Giampaolo arrived from Serie A rivals Sampdoria after Gennaro Gattuso stepped down as head coach of Milan at the end of the 2018-19 season.
And Giampaolo oversaw defeat in Milan's pre-season opener as Goretzka's well-taken 48th-minute goal guided Bayern to their second ICC victory.
New signing Theo Hernandez made his debut for Milan following his transfer from Real Madrid, while Paolo Maldini's son – Daniel – was also in the starting XI for the Rossoneri.
10' No pen! Coman taken down in the box
Coman uses his pace to get into the penalty area against Calabria, but the winger falls in the midst of trying to work an opening. He immediately appeals for a penalty, but replays clearly suggest he slipped on the turf, not under a challenge.
44' Theo goes off injured
Play is stopped as the medical staff come out to attend to Hernandez, who looks in some discomfort. His foot was stepped on accidentally by Sule during a Milan attack, which has done some damage to his ankle.
The stretcher comes out for Hernandez as Giampaolo is forced into a first-half change. It doesn’t look good as the stretcher has to come out for the new signing. Conti will be his replacement.
48' GOAL! Bayern 1-0 Milan (Goretzka)
GORETZKA MAKES IT 1-0 BAYERN MUNICH ON THE STROKE OF HALF-TIME! Kimmich passes it into the channel with lovely pace as it plays Goretzka through on goal. Donnarumma was far off his line, and had no chance at the early strike from the Germany international!
49' Yellow Card! Calhanoglu booked
Calhanoglu gets into a footrace with Coman, which he is never likely to win. He slides in to bring down the France international, earning a yellow card for the foul.
63' CLOSE! Ulreich denies Cutrone's effort
Sule gives the ball away in front of his own net but Cutrone is unable to get the ball out of his feet quick enough as Ulreich comes flying off his line to make the save!
76' Çalhanoglu's long shot too straight
Calhanoglu takes a corner towards Piatek, but the towering figure of Sule clears it away at the first time of asking - though Milan win a second corner-kick after winning back possession.
82' Arp's goal disallowed
Bayern have the ball in the back of the net but it’s called off for handball! The cross comes into the six-yard box for Arp, but Strinic’s defensive header knocks it into the hand of the striker, which gave him an unfair advantage. He’s able to finish the chance with venom, but the referee immediately rules it out as Milan are let off the hook!
