Which player scored Brentford’s first goal of the 2026–27 Premier League season against Tottenham?

The story behind the answer

Keane Lewis-Potter scored Brentford’s first goal of the 2026–27 Premier League season against Tottenham.

Brentford opened their campaign with a 3–0 home victory over Tottenham Hotspur on 22 August 2026. Lewis-Potter put the Bees ahead in the 12th minute after Mamadou Sangaré created the chance on his Brentford debut.

Vitaly Janelt added Brentford’s second goal before half-time, and Michael Kayode completed the scoring after the interval. Brentford’s attacking performance gave new head coach Keith Andrews an excellent competitive start.

The match also included a missed penalty by Igor Thiago. Had that attempt gone in, Brentford would have had an even larger margin and might have finished the day top of the table on goal difference. Tottenham’s defeat marked a difficult start under Roberto De Zerbi.
