That brings to an end a satisfactory day's work for Conte and his men. There were plenty of positives for Chelsea to take from this match. Cuadrado, Hazard, Oscar and Batshuayi all looked bright after coming on while N'golo Kante proved as reliable as ever in his first match for Chelsea.

Chelsea will go back home happy while Milan showed glimpses of good football to provide a small ray of hope to their fans

Like a popular meme says, 70% of the earth is covered by water, the rest is covered by N'golo Kante!

08:03 (IST)4 AUG 2016

07:53 (IST)4 AUG 2016

Chelsea and AC Milan have played out an entertaining half of football and one can only hope that the inevitable raft of substitutions in the second half do not disrupt the flow of this game.

That Bonaventura free-kick goal is still giving me goosebumps. Amazing goal! We will be back with the second half in no time at all! Stay tuned

07:36 (IST)4 AUG 2016

07:35 (IST)4 AUG 2016

07:25 (IST)4 AUG 2016

18' Chelsea are really struggling to impose themselves on the game with Milan making all of the early running. The 4-4-2 experiment from Conte seems to be failing with Fabregas and Matic hopelessly exposed at the centre of the park

07:23 (IST)4 AUG 2016

15' CLOSE! Niang almost gives Milan the lead! The Serie A giants carve open the Chelsea defence again and Luiz Adriano's ball finds Niang. However, the young forward's strike is saved brilliantly by Courtois 

07:19 (IST)4 AUG 2016

12' CHANCE! Diego Costa should have scored! Willian curls in an inviting ball straight onto Costa's head, but the Spaniard's header goes just wide. Costa should have scored!
