Andrews a ‘tad disappointed’ – and Bees star Schade suffers injury

Keith Andrews admitted to being a “tad disappointed” after Brentford’s 2-2 draw at Aston Villa.

Kristoffer Ajer’s goal earned the Bees a point at Villa Park.

Yehor Yarmoliuk gave them an early lead but former Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson equalised just 88 seconds later.

But in the second half, Brentford themselves hit back with an immediate equaliser, after John McGinn had put the hosts ahead, and they remain unbeaten this season.

But boss Andrews said: “Tad disappointed we couldn’t take advantage of some situations in the last 10 or 15 minutes, coming on strong.

“To come away to a club who are playing in the Champions League, and to be a tad disappointed, probably shows where we are at.”

Meanwhile, Kevin Schade will be assessed after suffering a shoulder injury.

Schade fell awkwardly during the first half and had to be replaced early in the second.

Andrews explained: “He’s picked up a shoulder injury, so we’ll see how he is in the next few days.

“He probably wasn’t right at half-time. He wanted to give it a go (and play on).”

Jannick Schuster, who was nursing a knock ahead of the trip to the Midlands, was replaced at the interval.
