Brentford 2-1 Bournemouth: Tariqe Fosu scores late winner for Brentford to move ahead of Bournemouth into second and go 16 games unbeaten

A sweet 16 unbeaten for Brentford and one of the most significant and satisfying results to date as they came from behind to see off fellow promotion hopefuls Bournemouth.

This win was testament to the depth of quality in Thomas Frank’s squad as Tariqe Fosu came off the bench to head home the winner 11 minutes from time.

During this hectic season, everyone is having to dig deep in the Championship and when your substitutes prove themselves match-winners all the signs are encouraging.
