Chelsea secured a 2-2 draw against Brentford thanks to a late header from Axel Disasi. The match saw supporters turn against Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino. After their Carabao Cup final defeat, Chelsea aimed to bounce back and had a strong start with Nicolas Jackson heading them in front during the first half. However, Brentford came back strong in the second half, with Mads Roerslev equalizing within five minutes of the restart and Yoane Wissa scoring a brilliant acrobatic volley to put Brentford ahead. As Brentford looked to secure the win, Chelsea fans chanted against co-owner Todd Boehly and called for Pochettino to be replaced. But in the 83rd minute, Disasi scored the equalizer with a header from a corner. The draw leaves Chelsea in 11th place in the Premier League, while Brentford sits six points above the relegation zone.
