Tottenham vs Brentford - LIVE!
The Bees took an early lead against Manchester City a week ago, and it was more of the same here as Bryan Mbeumo volleyed home brilliantly after just 22 seconds to stun the home fans.
The response from Spurs, though, was superb, as they registered 17 shots in a rampant first-half showing. Two of those brought the goals to give the hosts a half-time lead. Dominic Solanke scored his first goal for the club, after James Maddison’s effort had been parried into his path, before Brennan Johnson got himself on the scoresheet once again with a low finish into the far corner.
The match remained in the balance for much of the second-half, with Guglielmo Vicario fortunate to avoid punishment after seemingly handling the ball outside of his area. He made a fine save to deny Kevin Schade an equaliser, and that proved a big moment as Maddison finally the match to bed with five minutes remaining, providing a lovely dinked finish after being played through by Heung-min Son.
