Summing up, fan fest at AC Milan game and flight home

The final day of the Audi Summer tour got off to a leisurely start – Niko Kovac dispensed with a morning training session and instead sent his team on a walk through Kansas City. After a rest in the afternoon, it was back to action again: FC Bayern beat the 18-time Italian champions AC Milan 1-0 at the Children's Park to round off the USA tour on a high.

"We played really well today. The players gave their all in both halves, created one or two chances that could have led to goals," said Niko Kovac before heading straight from the stadium to the airport for a night flight to Munich. fcbayern.com sums up what else happened before departure on day nine of the tour.
