On January 5th, Brentford beat Southampton by an overwhelming score of 5-0 in the 20th round of the English Premier League, achieving a perfect victory. After the match, Brentford manager Thomas Frank was full of praise for his team's performance in the press conference.
"In this game, we were almost perfect." Frank intoned with pride, "Southampton didn't have a single effective attack in 90 minutes, our defense was rock solid and we created many chances on the offensive end. Although the scoreline didn't go beyond 5-0, I couldn't be prouder of the team's performance."
"Southampton have been in a slump of form recently and we are yet to win on the road this season, but today's game proved everything. It reflected the culture within the team's dressing room and the relationships between the players." Frank emphasized, "Their commitment, focus and attitude were impressive."
Talking about how the team created scoring chances, Frank revealed that the starting five attackers all showed great efficiency with Lewis Porter, Shade, Vissah and Mbewumo all scoring, with Mbewumo scoring two solo goals. Damsco also contributed an assist and Frank felt the team's performance was very threatening.
On the rapport between Mbeumo and Visa, Frank says that this on-field chemistry stems from a deep friendship off the field. He believes that mutual appreciation and hard work among the players is a key factor in the team's success.
Finally, Frank shared the way to celebrate the victory, "Tonight will taste a glass of wine to celebrate this precious victory. At the same time, I hope the team continues to perform at this high level and get ready for the next games."
