Mexico's Club America notched its second victory over Italian opposition in pre-season action with a 2-1 win against AC Milan in the United States on Wednesday. A fine glancing header from Daniel Marquez six minutes from time broke a 1-1 deadlock and gave the ten-time Mexican champion victory at the Georgia Dome. After its victory on penalties against Inter Milan on Sunday, Club America looked sharper than Leonard's Milan side which has just returned to full training. The Mexicans took the lead in the 55th minute through Enrique Esqueda, who made a fine run to lose Milan's American defender Oguchi Onyewu, then latched on to a deft through-ball from Salvador Cabanas before smartly turning it home. Ten minutes later Filippo Inzaghi equalized for Milan with a characteristic strike, sneaking on to a ball down the middle and guiding it into the net before Marquez's sealer.
