Everton extended their unbeaten Premier League streak to seven games with a 1-1 draw at Brentford.Thomas Frank believes that Brentford were good value for a share of the spoils against Everton.
The Toffees took their unbeaten run in the Premier League to seven matches as they earned a 1-1 draw in West London. In an entertaining Gtec Community Stadium content, the home side took the lead when Everton failed to clear a long throw-in and Yoane Wissa headed home in first-half stoppage-time.
But David Moyes’ troops created plenty of chances during the game and got their reward in the 77th minute when Jake O’Brien headed home his first goal for the club.
And while Brentford goalkeeper Mark Flekken was man of the match, which underlines that Everton had their opportunities, Frank feels a stalemate was fair.
“As always, there were many good things, but also some things we could have done better,” the Bees boss said. “I felt that our performances are quite consistent: we are in that bracket of not too bad, quite good, but not top. A lot of the time, that could have given us three points today.
“The performance was not through the roof, we probably lacked the last edge to go 2-0 up; if we had done that, we win the game. That said, Mark Flekken makes three unbelievable saves. He first gave us the opportunity to win the game with the first two saves, and then he made sure we got a point in the end. A draw was probably fair.”
