Tottenham Hotspur picked up three vital points in Premier League action with a 3-1 victory over Brentford at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. It wasn't the start that Ange Postecoglou envisioned in the opening 30 seconds of the match.

Brentford did have a couple of late opportunities, none worse than after Guglielmo Vicario was caught in possession and coughed up the ball just in front of his own goal, but was able to recover and save the chance. Spurs went into the break up 2-1 and with the wind at their backs.

Tottenham earned their second Premier League win of the season as they recovered from a nightmare start to beat Brentford 3-1 in north London. The Bees took an early lead against Manchester City a week ago, and it was more of the same here as Bryan Mbeumo volleyed home brilliantly after just 22 seconds to stun the home fans.
