Kevin-Prince Boateng says AC Milan will benefit from their defeat to Chelsea on the weekend.

The Ghana international has insisted that playing against such a strong team will be an advantage.

"Chelsea are a strong team so it was a good test for us," he told MilanNews. "Certainly we are disappointed about the defeat, but it was a good experience.

"It's a good training session ahead of the Champions League qualifiers we have to play.

"My goal is to better last season, and we're all working hard to do that."
