Bryan Mbeumo was delighted to score in Brentford's victory over Southampton.

Mbeumo underlined the importance of a strong understanding with his fellow forwards after the Bees extended their unbeaten run in the Premier League to nine matches.

“I feel very good and very happy to have helped the team with a goal and an assist," he said.

“I know that if I put the ball in the box, we have players who are great at headers in the team.

“We've [Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa] had a good relationship since he came.

“We try to work a lot together, with Ivan as well, to be as good as possible on the pitch.
