Match Report
The Serie A giants - who were well beaten by Bayern Munich in their opening Group C encounter - took the lead after Edin Dzeko curled home a fine effort 20 minutes in.
After missing several chances to extend their lead, the Italian side finally did so with Denzel Dumfries, not long after Plzen midfielder Pavel Bucha had seen red for a poor challenge on Nicolo Barella.
