Mbeumo’s fourth of the season cancelled out goals from Dominic Solanke and David Brooks after Mathias Jensen put Brentford in the lead for Brentford in the first half. And Frank praised his team’s second-half display which saw them extend their unbeaten start to the season, with six points on the board.
Thomas Frank said: “First half we were good but second half we were fantastic. I think we ran over Bournemouth in the second half and we created chance after chance. The only chance I can remember from Bournemouth was the goal, and that was a mistake from Rico (Henry). But the mentality in this team is incredible. What character. They never give up, they will never die. After we got a more than well-deserved equaliser, we still went for it, with centre-backs Nathan Collins and Kristoffer Ajer still overlapping. I am very proud of the team’s performance. If we play this 100 times, we win it 98, draw one, that was (Saturday), and lose the other time, because there were so many big chances.”
