A second Dembele strike -- off another fine solo run -- handed Barca the lead at the break only for Kean top level for Juventus again early in the second half.

Robert Lewandowski made his second start for Barca after making his debut in the 1-0 win over Real Madrid on Saturday in Las Vegas.
However, the Poland striker's wait for his first goal for his new club, who he joined from Bayern Munich for €45 million this summer, goes on.
Instead the plaudits here went to Dembele, who scored two stunning goals at the end of the first half.
The France winger, who recently signed a new contract until 2024, beat Alex Sandro and Juan Cuadrado before firing home in the 34th minute.
Kean turned home a Cuadrado cross five minutes later to level the game, but Dembele wove his way through the Juve defence again just before the break to restore Barca's lead.
Both teams made wholesale changes at half-time, with Frenkie de Jong coming on as a central defender for Barca for the third successive friendly, but it was Kean who was once again in target in the 51st minute.
The former Everton and Paris Saint-Germain striker converted for the Italian side after being teed up by Manuel Locatelli.
Both sides continued to make substitutes, disrupting the flow of what had been an entertaining game, but it was Barca who came closest to winning the match.
Raphinha hit the woodwork from a free kick and Ansu Fati struck the bar for the Catalans later.
Miralem Pjanic also came close from a set play and Gavi was denied by goalkeeper Mattia Perin as Juve held on for a draw in Texas.
