Heung-Min Son then came close to making it 2-0 when, after receiving the ball from Harry Kane was unfortunate to see his well placed effort on goal well saved by Bees ‘keeper David Raya (11’).

Emerson Royal had a shot well blocked by the Brentford backline just after the 20 minute mark, which was followed by a Davinson Sanchez header which flew narrowly wide of the post following a Dejan Kulusevski cross (24’).

After a couple of chances on goal in the first half, Brentford finally got their equaliser through Bryan Mbeumo who found the bottom left corner after a pass into his feet from Yoane Wissa (50’).

Emerson Royal and Harry Kane both had chances to reinstate Spurs’ advantage, but it would be the Bees who would get the next goal.

It was Mbeumo again, who once again found the bottom left corner with less than half an hour of the match remaining. This time the forward had received the ball from Scottish full back Aaron Hickey via a through ball (62’).

Despite chances presenting themselves to Richarlison and Kane, it would be Frank’s Bees who put the game beyond Tottenham’s reach in the dying embers of the game. Bryan Mbeumo was involved once again, but this time he was able to find Yoane Wissa, who found the back of the net to make it 3-1 (88’).
