STORY: Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan played out a rare friendly between top European sides during an international break during the season, with the Spaniards edging out the Italian side on penalties following a 1-1 score after 90 minutes. The game was hosted in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi on Friday (October 10) to much fanfare as the North African country seeks to climb out of years of turmoil and instability. The game was sponsored by the Benghazi Reconstruction and Development Fund. The fund is headed by Belgasem Haftar, a son of military commander Khalifa Haftar. The elder Haftar was at the game, saluting crowds after spectators cheered when they saw him on the large screens shortly before half-time. The Benghazi-based government of Osama Hamad is allied to Haftar, who controls the east and large parts of the southern region of Libya. (Production: Esam Omran Al-Fetori, Hani Amara)
