A devastating second-half performance saw Brentford sweep aside Chelsea 3-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium, extending the Blues' concerning domestic slump to just one point from three games.

Following an intensely contested first half that ended goalless, but the Bees struck in the 61st minute when Jaidon Anthony broke the deadlock with an header from Brentford's set-piece.

In the 83rd minute, Igor Thiago doubled the host's advantage, capitalizing on static defending to put Brentford firmly in control.
