Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Chelsea FC and Brentford FC get this one started.
  • 5' The travelling Brentford FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Vitaly Janelt made 338 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Chelsea FC and Brentford FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 20' Chelsea FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 25' Christian Norgaard is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Chelsea FC so far.
  • 30' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Brentford FC that had 346 games and scored 510 goals.
  • 35' Chelsea FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Brentford FC's shape.
  • 40' Mathias Jensen has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 45' Kristoffer Vassbakk Ajer has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 48' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Antonio Rudiger makes it 1-0.
  • 50' Vitaly Janelt doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 54' Christian Eriksen makes no mistake. The score reads 1-2 and Brentford FC are in front.
  • 55' The Chelsea FC bench stirs into life. Marcos Alonso is withdrawn and Reece James gets his opportunity.
  • 60' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 61' Vitaly Janelt with the second goal in the match!
  • 64' The crowd applauds Timo Werner as he leaves the pitch. Mateo Kovacic steps in for Chelsea FC.
  • 65' Chelsea FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Romelu Lukaku is hanging N'Golo Kante on the field on 65 minute.
  • 70' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Hakim Ziyech suffering a number of foals already.
  • 75' It looks like no one’s ball. Chelsea FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 80' Both keepers have barely been tested. Chelsea FC and Brentford FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 82' Mathias Jensen is replacing Vitaly Janelt for the Brentford FC side.
  • 85' Yoane Wissa gets the nod from Brentford FC. He replaces Bryan Mbeumo and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 87' A stunning finish from Yoane Wissa — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 88' A tactical swap from Brentford FC — Sergi Canos on, Rico Henry off on 88 minutes.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Chelsea FC.
