Chelsea's Europa Conference League match against Gent was marred by violent behavior from the visiting fans, who caused chaos both inside and outside Stamford Bridge despite Chelsea winning 4-2. Gent supporters disrupted traffic with flares and chants before the game, and once inside, they engaged in aggressive chanting, ripped up seats, and tore down banners honoring Chelsea legends. The Metropolitan Police made several arrests in response to the disturbances, which included fans throwing chairs and bottles at Chelsea supporters. Despite the unsportsmanlike conduct from some Gent fans, the Chelsea team enjoyed a strong performance on the pitch, with goals from Renato Veiga, Pedro Neto, Christopher Nkunku, and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. Chelsea's management expressed satisfaction with their team's performance, while Gent issued a statement condemning the actions of a minority of their fans. The incidents have sparked discussions about fan behavior and sportsmanship in football.
