Brentford makes safe return to Watford with injury-time penalty

Brian Mbumo’s stoppage-time penalty gave Brentford a dramatic 2-1 win over Watford in the English Premier League on Friday.

Brentford moved back into the top half of the standings, while Watford remained three points above the relegation zone.

It looked like Emmanuel Dennis brought life to Watford’s survival bid with his first-half header, which lasted six minutes.

The bees level themselves through the Pontus Johnson. Then Mbeumo, is deputing from the spot for coronavirus-Infected Ivan Toni mustered up the courage to achieve a memorable victory.

Watford boss Claudio Ranieri has already said this match is where his season will actually start after a brutal run of fixtures, but it is four consecutive losses for the Italian.

Brentford, even without defender Ethan Pinnock COVID-19, dominated in the early stages.

When Watford finally stirred life, Brentford gave the ball cheaply at the half line and it went to Joshua King. He cuts to the left and crashes a low shot against the far post.

The loose ball was deflected for a corner and, from a Tom Cleverly delivery, Dennis headed home ahead of Bees captain Johnson.

Brentford leveled with six minutes to go when Johnson hit his head on Vitaly Genault’s cross.

And five minutes into injury time, Bees substitute Saman Ghoddos slipped William Acong and was brought down by the Hornet defender.

Tony may be “the world’s best penalty taker” according to Brentford boss Thomas Frank, but Mbumo is clearly paying attention, copying the run-up of his absent strike partner and pushing a spot kick into the corner. Used to be.
