LONDON -- Chelsea kept their Champions League hopes alive with a dominant 3-0 win over AC Milan at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.
Wesley Fofana opened the scoring for Chelsea with his first-half goal in the 24th minute, but was forced off injured just 14 minutes later. AC Milan had spells of possession but it was Chelsea who took charge of the match in the second half with goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Reece James.
That allowed Graham Potter to empty the bench and enjoy his first Champions League victory in charge of Chelsea, but more importantly, it was their first win in the competition this season and keeps them in the mix for a spot in the knockout stages.
