Rico Henry and Yoane Wissa reap the rewards as Brentford earn deserved win over Everton

Brentford signed their final away game of what has been a remarkable debut Premier League season with a 2-3 win over Everton. Things did not get off to the best of starts when Dominic Calvert-Lewin gave the home side the lead after 10 minutes, coupled with a boisterous atmosphere inside the stadium.

However, the Bees were given a huge helping hand when the home side were reduced to 10 men when Jarrad Branthwaite was shown a straight red card for fouling Ivan Toney when he was clean through. An own goal would get Thomas Frank's side back on level terms, before Frank Lampard's men went back in front through Richarlison's penalty to give them the advantage at the break.

However, a tactical switch saw Brentford turn the game on its head in a matter of minutes. Yoane Wissa would eventually get on the scoresheet with a superb looping header, before Rico Henry's brilliant header from Christian Norgaard's cross proved to be the match winner.
