Wolves vs Brentford LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction today
Relive all the action from Molineux
Ivan Toney inspired Brentford to their first away win in the top flight for 74 years with a 2-0 victory at Wolves.
Toney almost moved to Molineux from Northampton as a teenager in 2014, the move collapsing when he failed a medical, so it was perhaps inevitable he would star as Wolves slumped to a fourth straight home Premier League defeat.
The 25-year-old had a goal, an assist and two disallowed in the first half alone as a clinical Brentford side got their first top-flight win since beating Leeds 2-1 in 1947, with Bryan Mbeumo also on target.
A second-half red card for Shandon Baptiste threatened to spoil Brentford’s afternoon, but, even though Wolves finished on top, they failed to score for a fourth league match out of five this season. Relive all the action below:
Liverpool 1 - 0 Crystal Palace
50 mins: Jordan Henderson follows up Salah’s attempt with one of his own. He’s full of confidence after scoring against AC Milan during the week but this shot from outside the box doesn’t trouble the goalkeeper.
Liverpool 1 - 0 Crystal Palace
48 mins: The home team start the second half on the front foot and work the ball across the box to Mo Salah. He shifts it to the left and hits one from range forcing Guaita into an easy save low down.
Liverpool 1 - 0 Crystal Palace
Second half: Liverpool kick off the second half. They’re attacking the Kop in this half. If the game flows like it did in the first half the Reds will finish with more than one goal.

39 mins: Huge chance! Liverpool should score! Mo Salah and Sadio Mane combine to work the ball into the box before Salah plays it out to Henderson on the right. He crosses the ball and finds Thiago who leaps at the ball and meets it with a diving header. Guaita makes a reaction save to palm the ball away but it falls to Jota inside the six-yard box and he hoofs it over the bar! How’s he missed from there?
