Brentford Makes History with Unbelievable Scoring Streak!

In a thrilling display that has left football fans buzzing, Brentford has made Premier League history by becoming the first team to score in the opening minute of three consecutive matches. The record-breaking streak continued on Saturday as Bryan Mbeumo found the net just 36 seconds into the game against West Ham, concluding the match with a 1-1 draw at the Gtech Community Stadium.

This remarkable feat follows Mbeumo's earlier goal in the opening minute of Brentford's 3-1 loss to Tottenham Hotspur last week, and Yoane Wissa’s sensational early strike against Manchester City just the week before that. This consistent early scoring highlights Brentford's aggressive tactics at the start of matches, which may be more than just a stroke of luck.

Since the arrival of new set-piece coach Keith Andrews, who replaced Bernardo Cueva after his move to Chelsea, Brentford has been implementing a refined "kick-off strategy." Manager Thomas Frank emphasizes the importance of planning, stating, "Of course there is planning that goes into it. We have a kick-off strategy and we tweak it from game to game. We like to get straight on the front foot and be positive."

Mbeumo's goal against West Ham brings his total to five goals this season, placing him among the league's top scorers. He is currently joint third, alongside Liverpool's Luis Díaz, while Manchester City's Erling Haaland and Chelsea's Cole Palmer lead the pack.

However, despite Brentford's explosive start, the team has faced challenges in maintaining their dominance throughout matches, with their draw on Saturday marking just two wins in their first seven league games. Fans are left wondering if Brentford can not only start strong but also finish strong as they navigate the intense competition of the Premier League.

Stay tuned as the Bees look to capitalize on their historic momentum! Will they turn these fast starts into victories? Only time will tell!
