Brentford end a three-match winless run in the Premier League with a 5-2 hammering of Leeds United this afternoon. Ivan Toney was the star of the show with a hat-trick to put the Whites to the sword. Leeds did give themselves hope as goals from Luis Sinisterra and Marc Roca reduced the deficit to 3-2. However, late strikes from Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa wrapped up the three points for Thomas Frank's men.

SAVE! Lewis-Potter should put Brentford 3-1 ahead, but he sees his effort saved. Toney flicks a long ball on to Mbeumo, who works an offload into the path of Lewis-Potter in space. He takes a touch in the box, but dwells too long on his strike. It allows Meslier to come out and narrow the angle, deflecting his effort wide of the right post.

OVER! Sinisterra and Adams combine to tee up Roca for a strike, but he smashes his left-footed effort narrowly over the bar.

OFFSIDE! Gelhardt works the ball over the top for Bamford with a precise chip, but the forward sees his effort deflected over the top by Henry. The offside flag goes up late anyway so it would not have counted, although it was nice link-up play nonetheless.

Thomas Frank will be concerned that his team allowed Leeds to get back into the game before the break. Their defending has been suspect at times this term, and it has let them down once more in a game when they were in control. The Bees need a strong effort in the second half to see out the three points.

15:54 , admin
Brentford hold a 2-1 lead over Leeds United at the break in their Premier League clash. The home side took the lead through Ivan Toney's effort from the penalty spot after he was brought down by Luis Sinisterra. Toney scored his second with a super effort from a free-kick to seemingly put the Bees in command. However, Sinisterra got one back before the break with a fine run and finish to give Leeds a chance in the second half.
