Brentford score early yet again in frenzied 5-3 win over Wolves

LONDON : Brentford scored an early goal for the fourth straight Premier League game as they beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 5-3 on Saturday in an enthralling end-to-end encounter that had six goals scored in a chaotic first half.
Having scored in the first minute in their last three games, Brentford kicked things off with a goal in the second minute this time when Nathan Collins headed home, but Wolves responded two minutes later with Matheus Cunha grabbing the equaliser.
Wolves then conceded a penalty after a VAR check when Mario Lemina dragged Collins down in the box and Bryan Mbeumo scored his sixth goal of the season, but yet again their lead did not last long when Jorgen Larsen made it 2-2 at the other end.
However, Brentford went into the break with a two-goal cushion after Christian Norgaard found the bottom corner following a flowing passing move and Ethan Pinnock scored from a corner to make it 4-2.
The second half was far less chaotic but Brentford scored a fifth in the 90th minute when Fabio Carvalho tapped in from close range before Wolves’ Rayan Ait-Nouri unleashed a venomous shot that went through goalkeeper Mark Flekken’s legs.
The defeat left Wolves bottom of the standings with one point after seven games while Brentford moved up to ninth with 10 points.
