Marco Friedl of Bayern Muenchen runs with the ball during the International Champions Cup 2017 match against Chelsea. Bayern manager Carlo Ancelotti had implored his side to show improvement following a 4-0 drubbing by AC Milan in Shenzhen last week. But a sluggish start left them with too much to do against a rampant Bayern. After a pedestrian opening, Bayern full back Rafinha scored for the German champions, cutting in from the right wing and drilling home a low drive into the opposite corner past sprawling Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. Inter Milan are the other team involved in the tournament and they will play Bayern on Thursday before rounding out the tournament against Chelsea on Saturday.
