Real Madrid beat Arsenal in preseason friendly (Video)

Arsenal bossed the first half and went ahead when Alex Lacazette's penalty went in via both posts after Nacho was sent off for handling an effort on goal from arsenal France striker.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang doubled our lead, latching onto Lacazette's pass to go past goalkeeper Keylor Navas and fire a shot in off Sergio Ramos.

A fourth win from four tour games looked on the cards for Arsenal but the match turned when Sokratis was sent off for two yellow cards in the space of two minutes.

Gareth Bale reduced the deficit for Real Madrid, prodding in from close range after the ball squirmed away from Emi Martinez's grasp under pressure from Marco Asensio.

It was Asensio himself who equalized, beating Martinez with a first-time effort from Marcelo's pass.

Marco Asensio was later stretched off for a knee injury.

Calum Chambers had a shot kicked off the line and Eddie Nketiah missed a couple of late chances for us, while Martinez kept Madrid at bay with two good saves.

And so to penalties it went to penalty

Reiss Nelson scored, Martinez saved from Bale, Thibaut Courtois denied Granit Xhaka and Isco made it 1-1. Bukayo Saka and Raphael Varane scored, but Nacho Monreal hit the post.

Junior scored to give Madrid the advantage, and Robbie Burton blazed over the bar to confirm Arsenal defeat.
