Full-time: Chelsea 3-0 AC Milan. After back-to-back defeats, Chelsea get a big boost thanks to a dominant performance and a big win.

90+2'
🔄

A late Chelsea change, as Wesley Fofana makes way for Mamadou Sarr for the final minutes. Robert Sanchez takes the captain's armband, with Fofana having inherited it from Moises Caicedo.

88'

Estevao nearly scores with his first involvement, cutting in from the right and having a low effort blocked by the keeper. From the resulting corner, Geovany Quenda smashes an effort from distance inches wide.

86'
🔄

Three more Chelsea changes: Joao Pedro makes way for Mykhailo Mudryk, Estevao replaces Cole Palmer, and young midfielder Reggie Watson comes on for Moises Caicedo.

84'

Chelsea should have had a hatful today. Nicolas Jackson leaves defender Valeri Vladimirov on his backside, cuts in from the left, but his shot to the near post comes off the outside of the woodwork. Should have been four.

79'
🔄

A change for Chelsea during the hydration break: Aaron Anselmino replaces Jorrel Hato in defence.

75'

Geovany Quenda has been very lively since coming on. A nice drop of the shoulder opens space for a shot on his right foot, which hits the outside of the post and flies wide.

64'

Geovany Quenda chips a cross to the far post on the left, which Marco Palestra chests down but can only fire wide. Still 3-0 to Chelsea.

59'
🔄

Nicolas Jackson comes on for Danny Welbeck, a straight change up top. Pedro Neto also makes way, coming off for Geovany Quenda.

57'

Chelsea are peppering Lorenzo Torriani. Cole Palmer has a shot from the edge of the area, straight at the Milan keeper.

49'

Moises Caicedo with a brilliant goal! A Chelsea corner is half-cleared to the captain standing on the edge of the D, and he finesses a volley with the outside of his right boot which curls into the bottom corner. Chelsea 3-0 AC Milan.

46'

Joao Pedro doubles the lead. Lovely in-swinging cross from the right from Pedro Neto, Joao Pedro slips around the back post and finishes from close range. Chelsea 2-0 AC Milan.

46'
📝

Kick-off, second half. No half-time changes from Xabi Alonso; Milan make eight, including Christopher Nkunku, formerly of Chelsea.

HT'
📝

Half-time: Chelsea 1-0 AC Milan. On the balance of play, Chelsea probably deserve their lead, a confidence boost for Joao Pedro after missing a couple of good chances earlier in the half.

45+2'

Joao Pedro heads Chelsea in front. In-swinging corner from the left, the ball flies over a mass of bodies at the near post to Pedro, who nods a simple header down and past the static keeper. Chelsea 1-0 AC Milan.

45'
🟡

Strahinja Pavlovic is booked for a cynical trip on Marco Palestra.

42'

Joao Pedro fashions space in the Milan box after a low cutback from Marco Palestra, but his first-time effort flies well over the bar.

28'

The closest Chelsea have come to taking the lead. Joao Pedro powers into the box and is tackled by Ruben Loftus-Cheek; the loose ball falls to Pedro Neto, who curls a low shot that Lorenzo Torriani has to palm away.

25'
📝

A slick AC Milan move looks to get Rafael Leao away from the Chelsea defence, but Josh Acheampong recovers superbly with a fine tackle. From the resulting corner, Christian Comotto's shot is deflected behind.

17'

Marco Palestra charges forward from left-back, cuts inside and feeds Danny Welbeck on the edge of the box. Welbeck's strike is comfortably wide of the near post.

13'

A first good opening for Joao Pedro, who bursts into the box but his shot is smothered by young Milan keeper Lorenzo Torriani.

7'

Pedro Neto, playing his first pre-season minutes after his World Cup exploits for Portugal, chips in a free-kick collected by Joao Pedro. His shot is deflected behind for a corner, first spell of pressure from Chelsea.

3'
📝

Interesting defensive line-up for Chelsea today, Marco Palestra lines up at left-back rather than his usual right side, with Josh Acheampong at right-back. Milan threaten early with a long ball for Francesco Camarda, but it runs too long.

📝

Kick-off. Away we go.
