Chelsea’s hopes of competing for the Premier League title this season took a huge blow on Friday night after they were thrashed 3-0 by Brentford.
The Blues dominated the opening 45 minutes of the match, but failed to break down the hosts and get goals.
It was the Bees who took the lead after the break, with Jaydon Anthony heading into an empty net following a corner routine.
Chelsea fought to level the game, but it was Brentford who scored again.
Kevin Schade saw his effort saved, but Igor Thiago was on hand to score the rebound.
There was enough time for Fabio Carvalho to squeeze in a third.
