A-League team Perth Glory have been embarrassed 9-0 by European powerhouse AC Milan in a friendly at HBF Park on Thursday night.
In front of a crowd of 19,226, the Serie A giants saw Rafael Leao and Noah Okafor both score doubles as they ran rings around the Australian side.
The margin was an eye-catching 5-0 at half-time, before Milan scored another four goals in the second half to complete their Asia-Pacific tour.
Perth found themselves behind after only three minutes through Filippo Terracciano but managed to stifle for Milan for the next 20 minutes.

But the floodgates opened in an eight-minute period through the middle of the half, with Milan scoring four times including Okafor's brace and strikes to Christian Comotto and Samuel Chukwueze.
Leao was introduced into the team in the second-half and he made an immediate impact scoring within the first minute.
He completed his double with the team's ninth goal on 85 minutes after Samuele Ricci and Yunus Musah also scored.
“It’s a great learning experience,” Perth Glory coach Davis Zdrillic said.
“We analysed (Milan’s) game against Liverpool, where they scored four goals and could have had a lot more. It’s just unbelievable, the physical profile of them compared to anyone in the A-League, really is just very impressive.
“I thought (after) the cup game, 120 minutes, for a lot of the guys, that was a very tough slog for them… the boys (were) just saying how slick everything was. Everything they did was basically perfect.”
