Wissa brace helps Brentford triumph in thriller

It was another high-scoring affair for Thomas Frank’s side at home, and it has now scored three or more goals in its past three home wins.

It had to work hard for the three points, however, as Evanilson profited from a mistake from Sepp van den Berg to open the scoring early in the first half.

Wissa’s header cancelled out that opener before the break, while Mikkel Damsgaard got them back on level terms just one minute after Justin Kluivert had restored Bournemouth’s lead in the second half.

However, Wissa delivered the winner nine minutes later with a lovely dink to get the Bees back to winning ways after their heartbreaking late defeat to Fulham last week.

Brentford leapfrogged its opponent into 10th on 16 points, with Andoni Iraola’s side one point behind in 11th.
