Brentford is currently drawing 1-1 against Manchester City at home in the Gtech Community Stadium. Brentford was ruining Man City's plans, taking advantage of Liverpool's loss to Arsenal yesterday. On the other hand, Brentford could get a valuable result with this win as they can go 6 points above Everton, who are 18th in the table with 19 points.

Man City was looking close to scoring on many occasions. Brentford was also close to scoring on their few chances at the start of the game. As always, Man City dominated possession and didn't let Brentford near the ball. Brentford was still able to shut down any attacks as they defended well in their box. Brentford threatened with counter-attacks and would get a corner often.

Brentford keeper Mark Flekken had the best first half in his career as he assisted Neal Maupay for the opener for Brentford. Brentford took the lead in the 21st minute after Flekken kicked the ball on a goal kick. The ball went past everyone, and Ivan Toney pretended to go for the ball. Toney doesn't touch it, and it falls to Maupay, which sets him up for a one-on-one with Ederson. Maupay makes no mistake, and he sends the ball into the bottom left corner of the net. Maupay makes it 1-0 to Brentford against Man City.
