Chelsea were the better side in the opening 45 minutes, with Pedro Neto drawing an excellent save from Caoimhin Kelleher and Morgan Rogers having a goalbound shot blocked.
However, it was Brentford who came out the blocks faster following the interval and they scored what felt like it would be a pivotal opener through Jaidon Anthony’s close-range header on the hour.
As Chelsea pressed for an equaliser, they were caught on the break late on. Igor Thiago doubled the Bees lead and Fabio Carvalho made it 3-0 with virtually the last kick, condemning the blues to a first defeat at the Gtech Community Stadium.
