Bryan Mbeumo does not miss penalties. His career record is now 10 goals from 10 attempts, so no wonder his team-mate Yoane Wissa felt confident when Mbeumo began his run-up to the spot in the 66th minute.

Bryan Mbeumo has now been successful with all nine Premier League spot-kicks he has taken for Brentford, while becoming only the fifth player in the division to take nine or more and score all of them
