In the 2026–27 Premier League opening-weekend match Brentford–Tottenham, in which minute did Keane Lewis-Potter open the scoring?

The story behind the answer

Keane Lewis-Potter opened Brentford’s scoring against Tottenham in the 12th minute of the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

The goal came in Brentford’s 3–0 victory at home. New signing Mamadou Sangaré created the opportunity on his debut, immediately making an impact for the Bees.

Lewis-Potter’s goal was followed by strikes from Vitaly Janelt before half-time and Michael Kayode after the interval. Brentford also missed a penalty through Igor Thiago, meaning the score could have been even wider.

Lewis-Potter began his senior career with Hull City before moving to Brentford in 2022. He has played as a winger and, at times, as a left-back or left wing-back. The 12th-minute opener was therefore notable both for Brentford’s fast start and for the player’s continuing attacking contribution. A common mix-up is to confuse the scorer with Sangaré, who supplied the assist and made his Brentford debut in the same match.
