Return to Europe
Finding himself on the rebound following a double save from Mendy, Bukayo Saka brought the score to 3-0 in the 65th minute, despite a slight offside. Abandoned by the defense of the Blues, Albert Sambi Lokonga scored the last goal of the game in the 92nd, on a header following a cross from Cédric Soares.
Winners of the very symbolic Florida Cup, Mikel Arteta’s men especially showed greater desire than the Blues and took advantage of their defensive mistakes.
It’s the end of the American tour for the two clubs, which return to Europe to play a last friendly before the resumption of the English championship on August 6: Chelsea will face Udinese on July 29, while Arsenal will host Sevilla on July 30.
City beats Bayern, Haaland opens his counter
It was the third enticing poster of the night in the United States. In Green Bay, Wisconsin, Manchester City disposed of Bayern Munich (1-0) in a friendly match. And of course, the only scorer of this meeting was Erling Haaland. The Norwegian therefore scored his first goal with his new colors. So, it was not an official goal, but here is the old BvB scoring machine launched with his new club.
