It's just one win in 10 now for Brentford after falling to defeat against Champions Manchester City at the Gtech Community Stadium on Monday night.
Thomas Frank's side found themselves in front after just 21 minutes when Neal Maupay stole through and pounced on a long Mark Flekken goal-kick. The Bees goalkeeper then kept out an onslaught of shots from the visitors and Brentford looked to be going into half-time in the lead until Phil Foden pounced on a weak Ethan Pinnock header.
The England international found the back of the net twice more before full-time as Manchester City proved their class. Here's how the Brentford players got on.

10. Ivan Toney - 7
Quiet night for the talisman who did the little holding up work he had to well. A willing runner and his physicality distracted the City defence for the Maupay goal. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
11. Neal Maupay - 8
A man who loves big opposition. Looped Ivan Toney in twice well in the first half and finished with aplomb for his goal. His influence faded in the second half but it's good to see the forward finding some form. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images

Cameo from the winger who provided little dynamism. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
