Rafael Leao of Milan scored the first goal in a seven-goal thriller between Portugal and Sweden during an international friendly in Guimarães on Thursday night.
The Rossoneri forward pounced after Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva hit the post just after the half-hour mark in Portugal. Leao took a touch to prepare himself before bending a shot over former Roma goalkeeper Robin Olsen and into the top corner.
Leao’s goal was Portugal’s first of five, and the game ended 5-2.
There were several Serie A representatives on display between Portugal and Sweden, including Leao and Roma’s Rui Patricio.
Emil Holm and Isak Hien of Atalanta, Napoli midfielder Jens Cajuste, and former Juventus forward Dejan Kulusevski all had a place in the Swedish starting lineup.
Former Milan striker Jon Dahl Tomasson led the Sweden team out for the first time since taking over as national team coach.
