Brentford hit seven against Eintracht Frankfurt in friendly

New signing Mamadou Sangaré scored as Brentford beat Eintracht Frankfurt 7-0 in a totally one-sided pre-season friendly.

Igor Thiago and Kevin Schade both scored twice and there were also goals for Dango Ouattara and Keane Lewis-Potter as the Bees limbered up for the new campaign in impressive fashion.

Schade scored the opener from close range, Sangaré’s half-volley from near the edge of the penalty area made it 2-0, and Thiago added the third before half-time with a tap-in after being teed up by Schade.

The hosts continued to dominate after the interval, with Ouattara firing in at the near post after being set up by Michael Kayode, Lewis-Potter’s left-footed curler making it 5-0, Thiago scoring after being set up by Mathias Jensen, and Schade tucking away Thiago’s cross.

Brentford: Kelleher; Kayode (Hickey 64), Ajer (Pinnock 71), Collins, Lewis-Potter (Henry 79); Janelt, Sangaré (Anthony 71), Jensen (Yarmoliuk 71); Ouattara, Thiago (Wilson 71), Schade (Damsgaard 71).
