Fulham's preseason match against Málaga turned out to be not too friendly when the English club walked off and coach Álvaro Arbeloa was red-carded on Wednesday.
LaLiga host Málaga scored a 90th-minute equalizer for 2-2. Málaga said a penalty shootout was scheduled. Fulham said there wasn't.
Málaga kicked a penalty into an open net and claimed the Costa del Sol trophy.
Before then, Arbeloa, who joined Fulham in the summer following the departure of Marco Silva, was sent off towards the end of the match for complaining to the referees.
