Brentford and Wolfsburg play out friendly draw

Brentford played out a 2-2 draw with Wolfsburg in their latest midseason friendly.

Two superb goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Ivan Toney saw Brentford draw 2-2 with Wolfsburg at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday.

Luca Waldschmidt put the Bundesliga side ahead within 15 minutes after a well-worked move, which finished with the forward dinking the ball over Bees goalkeeper Ben Winterbottom.

But the hosts turned the game around before half-time, with their first goal coming thanks to an inch-perfect free-kick from Mbeumo, which curled over the Wolfsburg wall, before Toney scored a stunning 45-yard strike to make it 2-1.

Wolfsburg's equaliser came with 20 minutes to play, as a free-flowing counter-attack led to 17-year-old forward Dzenan Pejcinovic scoring from close range.
