BRENTFORD, England -- Brentford sealed their first victory over Liverpool since 1938 with a 3-1 win at Gtech Community Stadium, which dealt a fresh blow to the Reds hopes of a top-four finish in the Premier League to qualify for Champions League.
Ibrahima Konate's 19th-minute own goal and Yoane Wissa's 42nd-minute header gave the home side a deserved lead as Liverpool made a dreadful start.
Although Liverpool improved after the restart, halving the deficit through Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's first goal in almost a year on 50 minutes, they were unable to make their dominance in possession pay and Bryan Mbeumo sealed a famous win six minutes from time.
