Rafael Benitez pleased with Real Madrid win

Benitez pleased with Real Madrid win

Real Madrid boss Rafael Benitez has said that his team "played well" in Monday's 3-0 victory over Inter Milan in the International Champions Cup.

Goals from Jese Rodriguez, Raphael Varane and James Rodriguez gave Los Blancos a comfortable win in the pre-season friendly in China.

"Both halves were good. We changed many players, those who stayed on are a little tired but there was a good pace to our play," Benitez told reporters.

"We played well, scored goals and didn't concede. We must continue working on our defensive game and maintain our edge [in front of goal], but little by little [improvements] being seen on the pitch."

Real Madrid are next in pre-season action against AC Milan on Thursday.
