Chelsea win pre-season shootout after draw with Inter Milan

Chelsea came out on top by virtue of a penalty shootout in their pre-season International Champions Cup tie against Inter Milan.

Pedro had fired the Blues ahead early in the piece after good work from Alvaro Morata.

The big striker’s persistence paid dividends as his shot fell to the feet of Pedro who buried into the top corner.

But Inter levelled through Roberto Gagliardini after the break meaning the game had to be decided by spot kicks.

New signing Jorginho was on target from 12 yards, as were Danny Drinkwater, Victor Moses and Tammy Abraham.

But it was Cesar Azpilicueta who scored the winner for Maurizio Sarri’s men.
