Arsenal 0-1 Juventus

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.

Emmanuel Adebayor's revelation that he is set to sign a new improved contract after weeks of speculation that the Togo striker wanted to leave didn't seem to appease the Gunners faithful, who loudly booed his name when the stadium announcer read out the teams.

Several of the likely key figures in Arsenal's season including Adebayor, William Gallas and new signing Samir Nasri were among the substitutes ahead of Sunday's clash with Real Madrid, while Cesc Fabregas was absent from the squad.

So a bumper crowd of over 60,000 got a glimpse of some of Arsene Wenger's starlets in a youthful side including Welsh teenager Aaron Ramsey, a five million pounds signing from Cardiff, and Spanish striker Carlos Vela, the stand-out of Arsenal's pre-season to date.

Ramsey was tidy but relatively anonymous but Jack Wilshere, one of the few English graduates of Wenger's academy, caught the eye early on when the 16-year-old tested Gianluigi Buffon with a fine volley.

Although both teams are preparing for Champions League qualifiers in two weeks time, it was Juventus who played with more intensity.

Trezeguet had the ball in the net in the 35th minute but his header was ruled out for offside.

The Juventus striker appeared to be offside again when he turned in a 37th minute free-kick but this time, while Arsenal's defenders appealed in vain for a flag, Trezeguet's toe-poked effort was allowed to count.

Adebayor came on at half-time, to another mixed reception from crowd, and gave Arsenal's attack a more threatening look.

Emmanuel Eboue shot wide from Adebayor's pass before Wenger sent on France midfielder Nasri for his Emirates bow.

Nasri, a 12 million pounds signing from Marseille, showed a couple of nice touches but it was Adebayor who continued to cause Juventus more concern.

He brought Buffon into action with a towering header from Bacary Sagna's cross, then shot over from close range when he should have hit the target.

Real Madrid defeated Hamburg SV 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.
