Premier League: West Ham United 1-2 Brentford
Brentford manager Thomas Frank says his team's injury-time win at West Ham was a "massive" result for the club.
Yoane Wissa scored an injury time winner as Brentford moved up to seventh in the table with a dramatic victory against West Ham United.
Let's have a look at the best reaction
The Brentford manager spoke with the media after the match and believes that his time can do even better: "If we can do that every week, it would be nice. Fantastic feeling away from home, a solid performance. In the second half, West Ham were better."
David Moyes added:"It was a blow, we didn’t deserve that. I think Brentford will make it hard for lots of teams. In the second half, we dominated and in the first half, we missed opportunities."
What stat?
Should West Ham be concerned about some of their recent form and results? They have now lost four of their past seven home league matches (won two, drawn one), as many as they lost in their previous twenty matches at London Stadium.
