The Scottish side netted twice in the first half and put in two more goals in the second half to seal the deal.

The Blues managed to salvage some pride with a penalty converted by Christopher Nkunku.

Speaking to the press after the game, Maresca said, “As we said, the result is always important. For us, we need to analyze the game in general.

“And off the ball, for sure, we can improve things and you can see sometimes we confuse when we need to play short, a little bit longer. It’s part of the process.”
