Overview
- Manchester City recovered from a 1-0 halftime deficit to win 3-1 in Seoul on Sunday, with Omar Marmoush scoring twice to overturn the match.
- Antoine Semenyo provided the assists for both Marmoush goals and Rayan Aït-Nouri added a late third to seal the victory.
- Atlético’s only goal came from 16-year-old Jorge Domínguez and the side fielded many academy players with Obed Vargas starting and playing 64 minutes.
- Kang-in Lee made his Atlético debut with roughly 30 minutes of play in his home country and reports said the club sold 10,000 shirts in Korea with local coverage predicting strong commercial interest in his number.
- Diego Simeone said he is worried because the squad has not trained together ahead of a tune-up with Marseille and the LaLiga opener versus Málaga, while Manchester City used the friendly to give minutes to young and fringe players such as Claudio Echeverri.
