Brentford goalscorer Mbeumo: We deserved victory at Chelsea

Brentford attacker Bryan Mbeumo says victory at Chelsea was deserved.

Ethan Pinnock had the Bees ahead before Mbeumo struck in injury-time after Blues goalkeeper Robert Sanchez was caught upfield for a corner.

Mbeumo later said: "Before the game we wanted to come and win here because I don't think many teams have beaten them three times in a row here. We're very happy with the result, I think it's a very good performance for the team.

"When I've seen him (Sanchez) coming high I've said to myself 'if we have the possibility to counter-attack it's a very good opportunity'. We did. I wanted Neal to score his first goal here but I'm very happy with this.

"We want to aim as big as we can, as we've been doing for three years now. We want to win as many games as we can."

On the Brentford support, he added: "They love us, we love them, and are very happy to give them the joy every game."
