Southampton dominates Brentford in 4-1 win in EPL
SOUTHAMPTON, England (AP) — Southampton earned its biggest Premier League win of the season by beating Brentford 4-1 with the south-coast club's new owner in attendance on Tuesday.
Jan Bednarek, Armando Broja and Che Adams scored and Southampton added an own-goal from Brentford goalkeeper Alvaro Fernandez in a match rescheduled from December because of a COVID-19 outbreak in the Brentford squad.
Brentford midfielder Vitaly Janelt's goal canceled out Bednarek's fifth-minute header off James Ward-Prowse's corner, but the home team went to halftime up 2-1 after the own-goal.
Southampton's win in front of new majority
It was the first time since 2017 that Southampton scored four goals at St. Mary's stadium.
Brentford has lost three of is last four league games and visits Liverpool on Sunday.
