Sky Sports : reported that Chelsea 1-2 Inter Milan: Talking points as Blues lose in Singapore

Without Costa, Chelsea looked to be missing a cutting edge against Inter Milan and the manager will need to find a way to maximise the threat of Morata, who was too often on the fringes in Singapore. Will we see him lining up against Chelsea in the Premier League next season? Antonio Conte saw his side lose both of their International Champions Cup games in SingaporeChelsea finished their pre-season tour of China and Singapore with a 2-1 International Champions Cup defeat to Inter Milan on Saturday - and their final fixture in the Far East will have given boss Antonio Conte plenty to contemplate. There was also shot into the side-netting, after Perisic had out-paced new Chelsea signing Antonio Rudiger, as the Inter wide man grew in confidence as the game wore on. While the winger had a quiet first-half, his performance in the second period showed why Jose Mourinho is keen on the 28-year-old.

Chelsea 1-2 Inter Milan: Ivan Perisic strike downs Blues

GOALS: Jovetic, Perisic REFEREE: Sukhbir Singh ATTENDANCE: 32,547The result will matter little to Antonio Conte.

Courtois denied Ivan Perisic and Jovetic scored from the rebound but this time the officials came to Chelsea's aid and ruled it out for offside. Roberto Gagliardini fired wide in a strong Inter opening before Chelsea found a better rhythm and exerted some pressure as the half-time interval approached. Inter sub Joao Mario should have made it 3-0, teed-up cleverly by Perisic on the counter-attack.
