Le Fee rescues Sunderland with late penalty at Brentford
Sunderland drew 1-1 at Brentford: Vitaly Janelt put the hosts ahead, and Enzo Le Fee levelled via a penalty in the 82nd minute.
Sunderland travelled to Brentford in the Premier League and left with a point thanks to Enzo Le Fee. As Sky Sports reports, Le Fee converted a late 82nd-minute penalty to seal a 1-1 draw after Vitaly Janelt had opened the scoring.
Janelt strikes, then the comeback
Per Sky Sports, Vitaly Janelt gave Brentford the lead just before the hour, finishing well into the top-left corner. But the advantage didn’t last: the referee Thomas Bramall pointed to the spot in the 82nd minute after an incident involving Keane Lewis-Potter and Wilson Isidor in the box.
VAR to the spot, Le Fee finishes
According to the report, VAR confirmed the decision and Le Fee stepped up to send the ball into the bottom-right corner, cancelling out Janelt’s earlier goal and earning Sunderland their share of the spoils.
After the match, Brentford head coach Keith Andrews said they can improve overall—“We can do better, I always look at us”—while also commenting on the officiating: “I wasn't bowled over with the officiating today, though, which I rarely say.” Sky Sports also notes the league impact: Brentford remain unbeaten and moved into fifth with the point.
