Wissa celebrates like Haaland as Brentford claim dramatic 3-3 draw with Liverpool and Salah makes history

Brentford claimed an astonishing 3-3 draw with Liverpool in west London as their dream start to Premier League life continues.

Having already beaten Arsenal and Wolves, they nearly picked up another scalp as they went toe-to-toe with the Reds.

Yoanne Wissa was their hero, nabbing the leveller eight minutes from time, celebrating like Borussia Dortmund superstar Erling Haaland.

The 'zen' pose was struck but it was such a wild game it's hard to believe anyone was calm in that moment.

It was a stunning match and, at the end, manager Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Frank acknowledged each other, a sign of respect after an incredible game.

Brentford took the lead in the game through Ethan Pinnock, an unlikely scorer, before Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah, with his 100th Premier League goal for the club, put Liverpool ahead.

The Bees weren't about to roll over though and Vitaly Janelt made it 2-2 before a rocket from Curtis Jones put the Reds ahead again.

And just when Klopp's men might have thought they had weathered the storm, Brentford ended strong and Wissa gave them a deserved leveller.

This is a breaking news story. More updates will follow shortly.
