Mbeumo scores winner as Brentford beat Ipswich in thriller

By Total Football News

There is something about the Gtech Community Stadium.

Earlier this month, Brentford were 5-3 winners against Wolves and this turned out to be another high-scoring encounter in West London.

After going two goals down in three minutes, Brentford seemed to be heading for their first home defeat of the season.

But Thomas Frank’s side rallied and got themselves back into the game with two goals before half-time.

“Being completely honest,

Facundo Buonanotte sealed Leicester’s first Premier League win of the season as the Foxes beat Bournemouth 1-0.

The Brighton loanee’s second goal of the campaign lifted the hosts to 15th before a pivotal run of games.

They face Southampton, Nottingham Forest and Ipswich after the international break in their bid for survival, but rode their luck with Lewis Cook’s free-kick disallowed for offside.

Dango Ouattara and Illia Zabarnyi hit the

Sheffield Wednesday boss Danny Rohl:

“Our performance today was, against a really strong side, good. We defended very well as a team, very compact. All the three goals we scored were fantastic.

“For me, just a small step today. For us it’s about consistently taking points, but more important for me is to have consistently a high performance. That means not 50 minutes or 60 minutes or 78 minutes like

Le Bris had said in the build-up to this game that this occasion was not the “real derby”, but the hectic start suggested it mattered a great deal in front of the Championship’s biggest crowd of the season, 42,781.

Both teams could have scored inside the first seven minutes as first Scotland forward Conway headed against the top of the bar from Isaiah Jones’ cross, but he really should have

Forest stun Liverpool with Hudson-Odoi’s winner

By Total Football News

Callum Hudson-Odoi and unbeaten Nottingham Forest stunned Liverpool at Anfield to end Arne Slot’s perfect start as Reds boss.

The substitute cut in from the left and curled an inch-perfect shot into the far bottom corner, which Alisson could not reach.

This was their first win at Liverpool in any competition since 1969.

The home side’s confidence was high at Anfield coming into the game after three wins out of

There was no shortage of commitment from Leicester, but the Foxes – who improved in the second half and could have snatched a late equaliser – ultimately paid the price for a slow start.

Had it not been for goalkeeper Hermansen, Villa would have been out of sight by half-time.

After twice denying Watkins, the Dane almost gifted the striker an opener when he let Caleb Okoli’s pass slip under

It was very much a case of deja vu for the Lions – who have twice battled back from two-goal deficits in the opening two weekends of the season yet remain without a point.

They were undone by a stoppage-time Watford winner seven days earlier and while Twine’s decisive strike came slightly earlier – in the 88th minute – it will have stung no less.

Stoke should have gone ahead before the break when Junior Tchamadeu rose highest to head Lynden Gooch’s far-post cross against the upright.

Emre Tezgel also had a header parried by debutant Coventry keeper Dovin, from Tchamadeu’s right-wing cross – but it was the only on-target effort of the first half.

And the two keepers did not get much busier after the break despite Coventry improving.

There were mixed emotions at full-time as Forest missed the chance to make mathematically certain of their place in the Premier League next season.

Instead it will go down to the final day, although it will require a highly unlikely set of circumstances for Forest to go down.

While they have a goal difference of -19, Luton – who must win to draw level with them on points – are

Even with a loss in their final home game, Bournemouth have had a brilliant season.

Despite a nine-match winless start, the Cherries have recorded their highest ever points total and are 10th in the Premier League table with one game to play.

There was a jubilant mood inside the Vitality when Solanke appeared to open the scoring in the 27th minute with a driven finish.

Indeed, the England striker was
