The UEFA Champions League is gaining momentum. This week, the prestigious tournament of the Old Continent will see the matches of the fourth round played.
On Tuesday, teams from Group E clashed in Milan - "Milan" tried to redeem themselves after last week's crushing defeat (0:3) against "Chelsea" in London.
However, the match started very unsuccessfully for the hosts. Already in the 18th minute, the referee decided to award a penalty kick for a foul in the penalty area, F. Tomori went into the box and Jorginho scored from the penalty spot (1:0).
In the 34th minute, the English managed to capitalize on their numerical advantage.
P. Aubameyang received the ball and easily beat the "Milan" goalkeeper - 2:0.
In the remainder of the match, the Italians' attempts to narrow the gap were unsuccessful.
