Cameroon international Bryan Mbeumo has discussed his double in Brentford's 5-0 Premier League victory against Southampton at St Mary's Stadium on Saturday.
Mbeumo's second-half brace were added to in stoppage-time by Keane Lewis-Potter and Yoane Wissa in a totally dominant performance from the Bees as they recorded their biggest-ever Premier League win.
His first goal was set up by DR Congo international Yoane Wissa, who cut inside before finding Mbeumo with a reverse pass, and the Cameroonian blasted into the roof of the net from a narrow angle.
Shortly afterwards, Van den Berg was dragged down at the back post by the Saints goalkeeper Lesley Ugochukwu in the penalty area and Mbeumo stepped up to whip the resulting penalty past Aaron Ramsdale.
Speaking after the game as quoted by Brentford website, Mbeumo said: “When you’re at a tight angle, you just try to smash it high," he reflected on his first goal. It’s hard for the keeper to react and I work a lot in training on that. It's the same for the penalty, I work a lot on that, too.
“I’m really happy to get the first away of the season, it means a lot The fans have been waiting for this for a while and seeing them happy is a great thing."
