Chelsea reach into Semi Final

Chelsea reached their third major semi-final in 11 months under Thomas Tuchel after scoring two late goals

to overcome west London neighbours Brentford in the Carabao Cup quarter-final.

The Blues ended up with Jorginho, James, Pulisic, Mason Mount and N’Golo Kante coming off the bench, though,

to make an impact as the tie was locked at 0-0 before Jansson’s own goal.

The move started with a James throw-in deep inside his own half and ended with the England defender supplying the cross

which led to the Bees centre-back’s misfortune.

Jorginho’s penalty sealed victory but Brentford, who reached the semi-finals last season, gave a good account of themselves

and will now look to consolidate their position in the Premier League following a solid start to the season.

Tuchel went onto the pitch at the final whistle to congratulate his players and acknowledge the travelling support after

a hard-earned success.
