Igor Thiago opened the scoring with a penalty in the third minute and added a second in the 77th minute, taking his season tally to 21 goals and breaking Brentford's single-season Premier League record. Everton equalized twice, with Beto heading in the first and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall scoring in added time to secure a 2-2 draw. The result leaves Brentford in seventh place in the Premier League with 47 points, while Everton is eighth, below Brentford on goal difference.
Thiago, who joined Brentford in a club-record £30 million deal from Club Brugge in 2024, missed most of last season due to injury and made his Brazil debut in a 2-1 friendly defeat to France on March 26, according to sources. Elsewhere in the Premier League, Brighton beat Burnley 2-0 with two goals from Mats Wieffer.
