Chelsea 1-4 Brentford Live: Rudiger’s Goal of the Season, Eriksen with his first and Janelt with a brace
Christian Eriksen scored his first goal for Brentford as a stunning 12-minute second-half turnaround earned them a shock victory at Stamford Bridge. Antonio Rüdiger had given Chelsea the lead courtesy of a stunning strike from 35-yards out which smashed the post on it’s way into the back of the net.
But Vitaly Janelt equalised almost immediately, lashing home from 18 yards out. Then came the moment of the afternoon as Eriksen, fresh from scoring his first goals for Denmark in midweek since his return following a cardiac arrest, gave the Bees the lead.
Bryan Mbuemo’s set-up led to Eriksen lifting the ball past Edouard Mendy before Janelt completed his brace with a dinked finish after being played through on goal by Ivan Toney.
A stunning afternoon for Brentford was complete in the dying minutes as substitute Yoann Wissa took advantage of some poor Chelsea defending from a set-piece to lash the ball past Mendy.
Arsenal can now close the gap on Thomas Tuchel’s team in third place to just two points if they beat Crystal Palace on Monday night.
