Brentford Beats Chelsea 2-0 in West London Derby

Jaidon Anthony scored for Brentford in the 60th minute, followed by Igor Thiago's counter-attack finish in the 83rd to secure a 2-0 win. Xabi Alonso's side, missing Reece James, Joao Pedro, and Moises Caicedo due to injuries, fielded Emi Martínez in goal and a front line of Cole Palmer, Morgan Rogers, and Danny Welbeck but struggled to create chances. The loss adds to Chelsea's tough start under Alonso, who stresses treating every game seriously, leaving fans noting solid defense but weak attack.
