The West London club’s traveling fans, far from pleased with their team’s performance, expressed their discontent audibly as the full-time whistle blew.
The lone goal of the match came courtesy of Hayden Hackney in the first half, highlighting Chelsea’s profligacy in front of goal as they squandered numerous opportunities to secure a more favorable outcome to take back to Stamford Bridge.
