Atletico Madrid Beat Chivas on Penalties for Win in 2019 ICC

Tuesday's International Champions Cup friendly between Chivas and Atletico Madrid proved to be anything but.

The two sides played a contentious match that featured a pair of red cards and went scoreless for the first 90 minutes before Atletico Madrid pulled out a win with a 5-4 advantage on penalty kicks.

Chivas converted on their first four penalty kicks and had a chance to win the match, but Antonio Adan saved Fernando Beltran's potential clincher. Juan Manuel Sanabria took advantage for Madrid to give them a 5-4 lead, then Adan came through with a second save in the bottom right corner on Alan Cervantes' attempt to keep the match alive.
