A debut to forget for Luka Modric with the Milan shirt. The Diavolo, in fact, was sharply defeated by Chelsea, which won 4-1 the friendly played at Stamford Bridge in front of its fans.

Five minutes in and the Blues were already ahead thanks to an’own goal by young Coubis. Three minutes later Joao Pedro header signed the double for the hosts. As if that were not enough at 18′ the Rossoneri remain in 10 for the expulsion of the same Coubis.

In the resumption at 67′ Chelsea drops the tris with Delap on a penalty kick. Three minutes later Milan shortened the distance with Fofana, but in the final Enzo Maresca’s men found the final 4-1 again with Delap, author of a double.

Milan thus comes out defeated from the last friendly of the preseason. Next Sunday at the San Siro at 9:15 p.m. the first official engagement: the Rossoneri will host Bari in the second round of the Coppa Italia.
