Chelsea needed 3 points tonight and they’ve got it....CONTINUE READING
Reece James has just scored a rocket for the Blues, taking a touch and hammering the ball past Ciprian Tatarusano in the Milan goal.
It was just desserts for the wing back after an impressive performance, and it was James who had picked up the assist for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s goal not long before.
This is a really pleasing performance, the first confident win of Graham Potter’s time as manager, and we’re already looking forward to the away leg.
Chelsea are 2-0 up against AC Milan after Pierre Emerick Aubameyang scored from close range.
The home team have taken advantage of a weakened Milan side and taken control of the game without excelling.
Aubameyang has had a quiet night, but he was on hand to score from Reece James’ cross after some sloppy defending.
It was former Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori who made the mistake, as he reacted slowly to the cross and let PEA slip in behind him to knock the ball in.
