A number of Chelsea fans were spotted leaving Stamford Bridge before the full-time whistle of their Premier League clash against Brentford on Wednesday night.

The hosts appeared to be in control of the early exchanges before Brentford took the lead in the 37th-minute, courtesy of Cesar Azpilicueta's own goal.

According to the Evening Standard, the visitors dented Chelsea's hopes of a comeback after Bryan Mbeumo doubled the advantage with 12 minutes left on the clock.

Unsurprisingly, a number of Chelsea fans were unable to watch the remainder of the match and were spotted leaving Stamford Bridge before the full-time whistle.

The Sun reports the Blues faithful vacated the stadium with 13 minutes left, a clear indication of their disappointment following a disastrous campaign this season across all competitions.
