Brentford punish wasteful Chelsea

Ethan Pinnock's last Brentford goal came in a 1-0 win over Manchester City on the final day of last season

With Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez up the field for a late corner, Neal Maupay led a Brentford counter-attack and set up Mbeumo for the second. Mathias Jensen was given room down the right just after half-time, cutting the ball back to Vitaly Janelt, who guided his shot straight at Sanchez. Thomas Frank's side added a second when Mbeumo tapped the ball into an empty net with only Sanchez nearby.

After the restart Chelsea's wastefulness became more apparent and they did not have a shot on target in the second half.
