In a friendly match, Milan held Real Madrid to a prestigious 0-0 draw, with Theo Hernandez and Luka Modric rattling the woodwork, and Mike Maignan parrying the Gareth Bale penalty.

Olivier Giroud got his first start in the Rossoneri jersey in this high-profile friendly against Carlo Ancelotti’s side, in front of 30,000 spectators in Klagenfurt, Austria.

Theo Hernandez almost scored within the opening three minutes, smashing a cross-shot against the base of the near post, much to the surprise of Thibaut Courtois.

New goalkeeper Mike Maignan showed some difficulties in playing out from the back, but did beat away a David Alaba snapshot, while Mariano Isco’s effort was deflected wide.
