Brentford stages stunning second-half comeback to beat Bournemouth 3-2 in Premier League clash.

Brentford rebounded from Monday's heartbreaking defeat at Fulham, overcoming Bournemouth 3-2.

The Bees had conceded two stoppage-time goals in their London derby loss and have dropped a Premier League-high 14 points from winning positions this season.

However, Brentford turned the tables, staging two comebacks.

Bournemouth began strongly, capitalizing on Sepp van den Berg's errant backpass to take the lead through Evanilson.

Brentford equalized in the 29th minute, Yoane Wissa heading home from a long throw.

The visitors regained the lead early in the second half, Justin Kluivert scoring from a well-executed corner routine.

Wissa's winner ensured Brentford maintained the Premier League's best home record.

Brentford regained the lead through Mikkel Damsgaard's angled strike, just 80 seconds after the equalizer.

Damsgaard's goal paved the way for Yoane Wissa's winner.

Wissa's seventh goal of the season capped off a well-crafted move.

In the closing stages, Brentford had chances to increase their advantage.

Meanwhile, Bournemouth substitute Dean Huijsen nearly snatched a draw.

Huijsen's stoppage-time header rattled the crossbar.

Brentford's victory propelled them to 10th in the Premier League.

This position is temporary, pending the weekend's remaining fixtures.

Brentford and Bournemouth are navigating life without their top goal-scorers, Ivan Toney and Dominic Solanke.

Despite Toney's departure, Brentford's attack remains potent.

Before Saturday's match, only three Premier League teams had scored more goals than Brentford (17).

Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa rank among the league's top 11 scorers.

Thomas Frank's tactical revamp has added flair to Brentford's gameplay.

However, their first equalizer was more functional than flashy.

Vitaly Janelt initially tested Kepa Arrizabalaga with a box strike.

A subsequent throw-in down the right led to Brentford's equalizing opportunity.

Yoane Wissa's winner came from Mathias Jensen's delivery, which was flicked on twice before Wissa expertly steered it inside the far post.

A VAR check confirmed no Brentford handball, securing the goal.

Bournemouth started the second half strongly, but Brentford instantly responded.

Bryan Mbeumo's pass found Mikkel Damsgaard, who squeezed a low shot past Kepa.

Emboldened, Brentford showcased fluid football.

Vitaly Janelt's through-ball allowed Wissa to dink the ball over Kepa.

Mbeumo and Christian Norgaard later missed chances to extend the lead.

Bournemouth's desperate late push was repelled as Brentford secured victory.

Bournemouth entered the match on a strong run, having beaten Manchester City and Arsenal and drawn with Aston Villa, earning seven points from their last three games.

The Cherries started brightly, with Antoine Semenyo forcing Frederik Flekken to deflect a low shot wide.

A well-executed corner routine led to Ryan Christie delivering a teasing cross, which Marcos Senesi headed over at the back post.

Bournemouth took the lead when Sepp van den Berg's errant backpass allowed Evanilson to round Flekken and score his third consecutive league goal.

After Brentford equalized, Bournemouth regained the lead through Justin Kluivert's clever one-two with Lewis Cook.

The Cherries were denied a penalty when Ethan Pinnock pulled back Evanilson.

Evanilson, Bournemouth's record signing, has now scored four goals in six games after taking six games to open his account.

To replicate Dominic Solanke's 21-goal haul from last season, Evanilson must maintain his scoring rate.

Bournemouth also relies on contributions from Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo to alleviate the goal-scoring burden on Evanilson.
