And they were given the perfect start to the return fixture when Fikayo Tomori was sent off in the 18th minute for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity.

The English centre-back brought down Mason Mount inside the penalty area and Milan were punished with a red card and the award of a spot kick.

Jorginho stepped up to put Chelsea ahead, but just seconds before he took the penalty a laser was shone into his eye by a home fan.

However, it did not have the desired effect.
