West Bromwich Albion stunned 10-man Chelsea by claiming a 3-0 win in their Premier League match this evening.

Saido Berahino curled a strike into the bottom corner to give the Baggies an early lead.

The Blues were then dealt another first-half blow as Cesc Fabregas was sent off for kicking the ball at Chris Brunt.

After the break, Berahino scored his second of the match from the penalty spot, before Brunt drilled in a low strike to wrap up the three points.

Here, Sports Mole takes a closer look at the events that unfolded at The Hawthorns.

Was the result fair?

It was a well-deserved victory for West Brom, who put in a fine team performance to take three points from the champions. The Baggies were disciplined throughout and barely gave Chelsea any clear-cut chances. They also looked a threat every time they came forward and Berahino proved a handful for the Blues. Chelsea will see the decision to send off Fabregas as the crucial turning point, but there can be no complaints, as the midfielder was rightfully shown a straight red card.

West Brom's performance

Albion fans could not have expected such a great result before the match, but they were good value for their win. They made a bright start and were ahead in the ninth minute thanks to Berahino's superb strike. After they took the lead, they came under heavy pressure from Chelsea and saw little of the ball, but they managed to hold firm and denied their opponents time and space in the final third. The sending-off did little to change the pattern of their game, but they made the most of their chances in clinical fashion to open up a three-goal lead. It was a memorable result and extends their fine recent run over the past month.

Chelsea's performance

Chelsea were far from their best, and despite dominating possession, they created very little to trouble Boaz Myhill. Most of their attacking play came through the middle, where it was far too congested and their wide players struggled to make a real impact. It was also an uncharacteristic showing from their back four, with John Terry giving away a poor penalty and Thibaut Courtois having a particularly poor night in goal. Jose Mourinho will be hoping that his players can find their spark next weekend and not end their season so poorly after such a great campaign.

Sports Mole's man of the match

Claudio Yacob: There were some fine displays from the hosts this evening, but Claudio Yacob just edges the vote. He put in a tireless shift in front of the back four and made a number of vital tackles throughout the evening. The Argentine was sent off in his last match against the Blues, but he will have far happier memories of this encounter.

Biggest gaffe

Fabregas must take a huge share of the blame for his team's defeat, after being sent off just before the half-hour mark. The Spaniard deliberately kicked the ball into Brunt's face and the referee had no choice but to send him off. It was a moment of madness and he could now be facing a three-match ban for his actions.

Referee's performance

Mike Jones made no mistake in sending Fabregas off, but he was far more lenient with Diego Costa, who escaped with just a yellow card following a scrap with Gareth McAuley. He also got the penalty decision spot on, and once again he had the option of showing a card to Terry, before deciding against it.

What next?

West Brom: The Baggies will make the trip to the Emirates to face FA Cup finalists Arsenal in their final game of the season at the weekend.

Chelsea: The Blues will be able to celebrate their title triumph in front of their own fans when they take on Sunderland at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
