Bees joint-top after Donaldson winner

Notts County 1 Brentford 2

Another late winner – this time from Clayton Donaldson – put Brentford joint-top of League One. 

The striker nodded home from close range in the 88^th minute from Adam Forshaw’s cross as the Bees came from behind for the second game running to win against fellow promotion chasers.

Tony Craig’s own goal on 20 minutes gave the Notts County the the lead before Forshaw steered into the bottom corner to equalise before half-time.

And then Donaldson stole in among a crowded box to grab all three points for his side at the death.

Bees boss Uwe Rosler made just the single change to the side that triumphed late on over MK Dons last weekend.

Toumani Diagouraga was not in the squad and he was replaced by Wigan loanee Rob Kiernan in midfield.

But Kiernan was forced off at half-time after the sides went in level and Tom Adeyemi made a return from injury to feature for the first time since early November.

Brentford: Moore; Logan, Craig, Dean, Bidwell; Forshaw, Kiernan (Adeyemi 46), Douglas, Forrester; Donaldson, Trotta (Hayes 90)
Subs not used: Lee, Saunders, Hodson, Reeves, Legge
