Live updates
A nice morale-booster on which to end a shorter US tour for Real Madrid, who had been beaten by both AC Milan and fierce rivals Barcelona.
They have plenty of big-hitters now to come back into their squad - not least the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham - before next week’s Uefa Super Cup clash with Atalanta in Warsaw.
That game is followed by their LaLiga curtain-raiser away at Real Mallorca.

So Chelsea’s latest pre-season tour of the USA ends with a third defeat in five matches to go along with heavy losses to Manchester City and Celtic and a disappointing draw with third-tier Wrexham.
Their only win came against Mexican outfit Club America in Atlanta last week.
It hasn’t all been doom and gloom for new boss Enzo Maresca, but his side’s obvious defensive vulnerabilities have been shown up plenty on this trip and will need addressing quickly ahead of the Premier League opener against rampant City at Stamford Bridge on August 18.
First up is a home friendly against reigning Serie A champions Inter Milan in west London at the weekend.
