AC Milan beat Barcelona in a shootout at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland, on Tuesday night as the two teams prepare for their upcoming club seasons, which are only weeks away.

Robert Lewandowski scored twice to cancel out a goal and an assist by Christian Pulisic as Barca and Milan finished regular time tied at 2-2 before heading to a shootout.

Pulisic set up Luka Jovic early in the first half before scoring one of his own, clipping a clever shot from a tight angle past Barca keeper Marc-André ter Stegen to double Milan's lead.

After conceding twice, Lewandowski pulled a goal back for Barca before half-time after a defensive mistake by Milan left him free at the top of the area to curl a nice shot around Lorenzo Torriani to make it 2-1.

Barcelona drew level before the hour mark with Lewandowski scoring his second, this time shooting into a wide-open net after Pau Victor dinked a delicate cross right into his path in front of goal.

With Milan leading the shootout 4-3, Torriani saved Barca's sixth attempt of the evening to seal the preseason win for Milan.

The match wraps up the teams respective tours of the U.S., with Milan's preseason over ahead of their Aug. 17 start to Serie A against Torino. Barca, meanwhile, will play AS Monaco in the Trofeo Joan Gamper on Aug. 12 in Spain before a road game versus Valencia to begin the 2024-25 LaLiga season under new manager Hansi Flick.
