Nottingham ForestPremier League. This was a challenging debut game for the new Brentford manager Kitt Endrius, who replaced Thomas Frank.
After a wave of injuries to Nunu Espiritu Santo before the match, related to the insufficient number of players in the team, his subordinates quickly resolved these issues. At the start of the match, new signings Omar Hatching and James McAfee were introduced as substitutes, and then the team put on a show.
Chris Wood opened the scoring in the 6th minute, netting after a corner kick, and then added another goal before halftime. The debut goal of Dani Ndoye was also a significant moment, as the team went into halftime with a 3-0 lead.
Brentford tried to find their game, but could not cope with the pressure. In the second half, Igor Tiago converted a penalty, but this did not change the outcome of the match. Nottingham Forest demonstrated a convincing game, and their chances for a successful season increased after this victory.
