Brentford boss Frank hails Henry performance after Spurs draw

Brentford boss Thomas Frank was happy with his goalscorers after their 2-2 draw with Tottenham.

Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa both struck on the day in the absence of the suspended Ivan Toney.

Frank said: “Seeing them both score was very pleasing. Every time Ivan was out last year and they played together, they scored! And they did that again today.

“That's the best answer they can give to anyone that might have been in doubt - I was never in doubt, by the way, because they've proven it before. So it was really, really good to see that."

Frank also praised wing-back Rico Henry, who laid on an assist for Wissa's goal.

“I think Rico was maybe our Man of the Match, I'd go as far to say," said Frank. "I really loved the way he would just sprint forward and create situations.

“He should have had another assist, by the way, the one where he played a beautiful ball across for Bryan. That was all really good."
