"Dango Ouattara's late strike earned Brentford a thrilling 3-2 win over Newcastle at St James' Park. The summer signing struck a winner for the Bees for the second successive game to earn all three points shortly after Bruno Guimaraes had brought the hosts level from the penalty spot. Brentford had come from behind to lead in the first half thanks to goals from a Vitaly Janelt header and Igor Thiago penalty after Sven Botman had given the Magpies the lead."
"Brentford were left aggrieved inside the opening two minutes when a strong penalty appeal was turned down. Keane Lewis-Potter raced onto a flick-on and went to ground under pressure from Kieran Trippier, but neither the referee nor VAR deemed the contact enough to award a spot-kick. The visitors started sharply and caused Newcastle problems early, forcing the hosts onto the back foot with direct running and quick switches of play. Newcastle gradually steadied, though Brentford continued to look dangerous in transition."
