Milan grabbed third place in the Guinness International Champions Cup by beating LA Galaxy 2-0 in Miami during the night.

The Diavolo had the game won by half-time thanks to goals from Mario Balotelli and M’Baye Niang on 17 and 40 minutes respectively.

Boss Massimiliano Allegri fielded a 4-3-3 system with Stephan El Shaarawy completing the trident in attack.

There was concern in the second half when Balotelli was forced to come off, but it is understood that he was just suffering with cramp.

Summer signing Andrea Poli began the game in midfield, before being switched to left-back during the second half.
