October 05, (THEWILL) – Brentford delivered a resounding victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers in a high-scoring English Premier League encounter at the Gtech Community Stadium. The match, which ended 6-3 in favour of the home side, saw an extraordinary first half with six goals scored in just 30 minutes.
Nathan Collins opened the scoring for Brentford within the first minute, heading home a cross from Mikkel Damsgaard. Wolves quickly equalised through Mateus Cunha, but Brentford regained the lead with a penalty converted by Brian Mbeumo. The back-and-forth continued as Jørgen Strand Larsen levelled for Wolves, only for Christian Nørgaard to put Brentford ahead once more.
Ethan Pinnock extended Brentford’s lead before half-time, heading in to make it 4-2. The second half saw a more measured approach from both teams, with Wolves showing signs of improvement. However, they were unable to close the gap on their hosts.
In the closing stages, Brentford substitute Fabio Carvalho added a fifth goal for the home team. Wolves managed a late consolation through Rayan Ait-Nouri, but it was not enough to overturn the deficit. The result leaves Wolverhampton Wanderers without a win and at the bottom of the League table as the international break begins.
The victory extends Brentford’s unbeaten run at home, while Wolves face growing concerns about potential relegation. Gary O’Neil’s team will need to address their defensive issues if they hope to climb the table in the coming weeks when hostilities in the EPL resume.
