MALAGA, Spain (AP) — Fulham's preseason match against Malaga turned out to be not too friendly when the English club walked off and coach Álvaro Arbeloa was red-carded for complaining with the referees. La Liga host Malaga scored a 90th-minute equalizer for 2-2. Malaga said a penalty shootout was scheduled. Fulham said there wasn't. Malaga kicked a penalty into an open net and claimed the Costa del Sol trophy on Wednesday. Fulham said on X: “We can confirm that prior to the match, both teams agreed that there would not be a penalty shootout in the event of a draw." Former Real Madrid coach Arbeloa was sent off for arguing with the officiating crew at the end of the match. Malaga said a penalty shootout was scheduled but “Fulham left the pitch claiming that a shootout had not been included in the contract.” ___ See AP’s full soccer coverage here
