Premier League: Brentford Claim Controversial 2-1 Victory Over Crystal Palace
Despite Crystal Palace: Brentford kicked off their Premier League season with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace, despite the notable absence of their star striker Ivan Toney due to "transfer interest."
The win, secured by Yoane Wissa's late strike, demonstrated Brentford's resilience and clinical edge, even as questions loom over Toney's future at the club.
The Bees took the lead in the 29th minute through Bryan Mbeumo, who capitalized on a moment of controversy just moments earlier. Crystal Palace thought they had taken the lead when Eberechi Eze's free-kick found the back of the net. However, referee Sam Barrott had already blown his whistle for a foul before the ball crossed the line.
