Brentford midfielder Rico Henry hailed their performance for victory at Everton.
The Bees had to come from behind as Everton saw Jarrad Branthwaite and Jose Rondon saw red for the hosts.
Henry said, "It was a battle. Thomas Frank said it was going to be hostile. They came out fast. The manager said we had to match the intensity and that's what we did.
"After that [red card] we had more possession. We knew we had to dig in there and stick together.
"Thomas Frank asked me to push on a bit when they went a man down and it paid off. He said keep moving the ball. We had to be patient.
"That's our goal, we want to finish in the top 10. We'll bring it to Leeds."
