Watch: Brentford score an own goal as Spurs take an early lead

Tottenham have taken the lead against Brentford and it is an own goal from the home wide.

Spurs captain Heung-min Son whips in an inswinging corner which goes through every Brentford defender and hits the back of Janelt and beats Valdimarsson in the back of the net.

The goal is similar to the one he scored against Man United earlier this season.

It is a lucky break for Spurs but an important one nonetheless.

Watch the goal below:

This is not the first time Spurs have taken an early lead but struggled to see the game through.

Tottenham have dropped 41 points from winning positions since the start of last season. Interestingly, as Sky Sports reports, only Brentford have dropped more points from winning positions (47).

It has been a good performance so far, one that has impressed new Spurs signing Kevin Danso.

Spurs successfully hijacked the move, beating Wolves to his signing overnight

While he doesn’t start today, fans can expect him to be a key part of the side in the second half of the season due to Spurs’ growing injury crisis.
