Which player scored first in Brentford’s 3–0 opening-weekend win over Tottenham Hotspur?

The story behind the answer

Keane Lewis-Potter scored first in Brentford’s 3–0 opening-weekend win over Tottenham Hotspur.

Brentford hosted Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday 22 August 2026 and won 3–0. Lewis-Potter opened the scoring in the 12th minute, giving the Bees an early advantage in the London fixture.

Mamadou Sangare, Brentford’s club-record signing, made an immediate impression by setting up Lewis-Potter’s goal on his debut. Brentford went on to complete a convincing victory and began the season with three points and a three-goal margin.

The first scorer is easy to confuse with Sangare because Sangare supplied the assist and was the major new arrival highlighted in the match report. Lewis-Potter, however, was the player who put the ball in the net first.
