LONDON: A first-half David Trezeguet goal gave Juventus a 1-0 victory over hosts Arsenal in the pre-season Emirates Cup tournament in London on Saturday.

French forward Trezeguet struck from an offside-looking position after 38 minutes, stretching out a leg to deflect Vincenzo Iaquinta’s free kick past Arsenal goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski.

Real Madrid defeated Hamburg 2-1 earlier in the day thanks to a late goal from teenager Daniel Parejo.

Parejo, a Spanish Under-19 international, headed the winner five minutes from time after Hamburg’s Egyptian forward Mohamed Zidan had earlier cancelled out Ruud van Nistelrooy’s first-half goal with a fine dipping shot nine minutes after the break.

Hamburg’s Dutch midfielder Rafael van der Vaart did not appear amid media speculation he was on the verge of a transfer to the Spanish champions.
