Brentford did have a couple of late opportunities, none worse than after Guglielmo Vicario was caught in possession and coughed up the ball just in front of his own goal, but was able to recover and save the chance. Spurs went into the break up 2-1 and with the wind at their backs.

Brentford found another early goal on the road. Bryan Mbuemo shocked the Tottenham Hotspur support with a goal inside 30 seconds.
