Liverpool picked up their first International Champions Cup victory with a 2-0 triumph over AC Milan at Santa Clara's Levi's Stadium on Sunday morning.
Divock Origi and Roberto Firmino were on target for the Reds in what was a repeat of the 2005 and 2007 Champions League finals.
Both Daniel Sturridge and Adam Lallana also had chances to add their names to the scoresheet, but neither could find a way through in California.
The Reds, who lost 1-0 to Chelsea in their ICC opener earlier this week, took time to find their passing groove at the half-full 68,500-capacity stadium.
A rather bland opening to the match soon made way for a better contest, though, as debutant Georginio Wijnaldum began to see more of the ball and fellow summer signing Sadio Mane also grew in confidence.
Origi was brought on at the break for Sturridge, and he took just 14 minutes to get off the mark after latching on to Alberto Moreno's pass and firing the ball home.
Sheyi Ojo, on for Jordan Henderson at the midway point, managed to get forward on numerous occasions and inadvertently set up the second goal when his shot deflected into the path of Firmino.
The Brazilian international slid in to double Liverpool's advantage, setting up the Premier League outfit for a strong finish to the match as they took control of things.
Origi had another goal ruled out for offside, but Milan were unable to really trouble their opponents as the Reds held out for their fifth pre-season win out of six.
