Christian Norgaard heads in for Brentford from close range

Ivan Toney scored his third goal in four Premier League games as Brentford clinched a deserved victory over misfiring Wolves at Molineux.

Christian Norgaard put the Bees ahead just after the half hour with a close-range header from a corner.

Toney secured the points with a crisp finish from Vitaly Janelt’s low cross 13 minutes before the final whistle.

Pedro Neto struck the post for Wolves but Gary O’Neil’s side suffered a rare off-day in front of goal.
