EPL: Chelsea Humiliated At Home By Brentford

 

Brentford stunned neighbours Chelsea with an incredible 4-1 victory at Stamford Bridge, despite falling behind in the second half.

After a goalless first period, where Ivan Toney had three fine chances to put the Bees in front, Chelsea took the lead three minutes after the restart when Antonio Rudiger smashed home an unstoppable curling effort from beyond thirty yards leaving David Raya with no chance.

This lead last just two minutes until Bryan Mbeumo set up Vitaly Janelt to slam home from the edge of the box and the former was again the creator as the visitors went in front courtesy of long-time Chelsea nemesis Christian Eriksen who dinked home from close range.

Seven minutes later the match was all but settled when Toney slid a pass through to Janelt and, despite getting a hand to his lofted effort, Eduoard Mendy could not keep the ball out of the goal.

The humiliation was complete when Eriksen's free kick found its way to substitute Yoane Wissa who lashed home with three minutes remaining.
