Ibrahima Konate’s own goal in the 19th minute empowered Brentford to walk over visitors, Liverpool —a 3-1win in an English Premier League match.

At Gtech Community Stadium, the players observed a minute of silence before the game.

Mohammad Salad created a perfect scoring opportunity for Darwin Nunez in the 8th minute to open scores but the striker played an off targeted shot to everyone’s surprise.

Ibrahima Konate sent a ball into his own net in the 19th minute when Bryan Mbuemo from Brentford swung in a ball from the corner on the right which was nowhere to his teammate.

It was 2-0 for Brentford before the break as Yoane Wissa headed home Mathias Jensen’s cross in the 42nd minute.

Liverpool pulled one back with a header five minutes from break; a goal from Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Liverpool could not level up until Bryan Mbuemo topped up with the left foot for Brentford in the 84th minute.

During a presser after the match, Yoane Wissa said, “Liverpool are one of the best teams in the world so if you want to beat them you have to be at 200%. I hope the fans enjoyed it!”

Liverpool currently sit at 6th position with 28 points whiles Brentford sit at 7th position with 26 points.
