Chelsea secure a draw against Inter Milan in their final pre-season friendly ahead of the 2024-25 Premier League season thanks to a last-gasp equaliser from Ugochukwu.
Chelsea‘s pre-season preparations ahead of the 2024-25 Premier League season concluded with a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge to Inter Milan, with goals from Marcus Thuram and Lesley Ugochukwu.
The Blues returned to their home ground on the back of defeats to Celtic, Manchester City and Real Madrid, a victory against Club America and a draw with Wrexham in their first five friendly matches.
Despite a particularly dominant first 45 minutes for the hosts, the Italian side scored the opening goal of the game thanks to a sumptuous strike from Thuram in the 26th minute.
Chelsea were the better team throughout the entire 90 minutes and created plenty of chances worthy of an equaliser against their opponents, but it took until the 90th minute for Ugocukwu to finally level the score with a volley from inside the area.
The result will mean little to Enzo Maresca, but the performance showed plenty of signs of promise ahead of their Premier League season opener next weekend.
