Schade bags brace as Brentford and Bournemouth play out entertaining draw

[p]A fast start saw both teams squander chances in the opening minutes, with [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/lewis-potter-keane/UyeRftbc/"]Keane Lewis-Potter[/a] curling just wide before [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/silva-antonio/0xBtwxKs/"]Antonio Silva[/a] headed [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/tavernier-marcus/jFqXIRZj/"]Marcus Tavernier[/a]’s free-kick past the post.[/p][p]Both sides had scored first in all their league games this season, so it was intriguing to see who would break the deadlock, but after a quiet period of action, [b]it was [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/brentford/xYe7DwID/"]Brentford[/a] who took the lead through [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/schade-kevin/GOPUXXvG/"]Kevin Schade[/a] - who netted a hat-trick in this fixture last term - when he directed [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/yarmolyuk-yegor/8noY4nKo/"]Yegor Yarmolyuk[/a]’s cross towards goal with a header, and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/petrovic-dorde/2F8I5Zyo/"]Dorde Petrovic[/a] could not keep it out.[/b][/p][p]However, [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/bournemouth/OtpNdwrc/"]Bournemouth[/a] reacted well to going behind and were almost level immediately when [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/kluivert-justin/fq4lU5sI/"]Kluivert[/a]’s shot was parried by [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/kelleher-caoimhin/4S8JqWN0/"]Caoimhin Kelleher[/a] into [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/rayan/CSiH3dM4/"]Rayan[/a]’s path, but the Brazilian blasted the rebound over.[/p][image alt="Match stats" id="e1f1e0f2-4fa0-4acd-b99c-400cccd600fa" credit-line="Flashscore" guid="abe69e2e-509d-4c51-8806-cf915df78fed" original-width="2160" original-height="2700" /][p][b]It was not long before the Cherries equalised though, and after the ball fell to Kluivert in the box again, he made no repeat of his earlier mistake, burying an effort into the bottom corner.[/b][/p][p]As well as providing a timely lift, it was also consolation for Bournemouth losing their 100 per cent record of leading at half-time this term.[/p][p]The hosts continued their momentum and were almost ahead when Kluivert’s strike was tipped over by Kelleher, before Silva connected with another Tavernier set-piece, but again headed wide in a promising position.[/p][p][b][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/scott-alex/boFdbMyt/"]Alex Scott[/a] then fired over after a nice link-up with [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/evanilson/lUqxFifa/"]Evanilson[/a], before Bournemouth finally made their pressure count. Evanilson was involved again and laid the ball off for Tavernier to smash into the bottom corner.[/b][/p][image alt="Tavernier goal sequence" id="eedc2f70-a8f4-4835-a1b4-ac000402670f" credit-line="REUTERS/Toby Melville/Opta by Stats Perform" guid="0de60caf-3887-4ab3-a7a8-4a37f69f291d" original-width="1080" original-height="1080" /][p][b]However, the Cherries shot themselves in the foot, as Brentford were soon level again through a horrible mistake from Petrovic. The goalkeeper passed straight to Schade, and he duly struck into an unguarded net. [/b][/p][p]Bournemouth looked the most likely to find the winner in the latter stages, as another Tavernier strike had to be pushed away by Kelleher, before Rayan curled inches wide from the edge of the box.[/p][embed guid="5f4a2b3e-f89c-4495-8591-dfea1e3a2eb6" url="https://x.com/BrentfordFC/status/2098795606546272702" social-type="twitter" /][p]However, neither side could find a winning goal, and Brentford duly remain the only team they have never beaten in the Premier League (D4, L5).[/p][p]Meanwhile, the Bees will be content with the point, despite extending their winless away run to seven top-flight matches (D5, L2).[/p][p][b]Flashscore Man of the Match: [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/tavernier-marcus/jFqXIRZj/"]Marcus Tavernier[/a] (Bournemouth)[/b][/p][image alt="Match momentum" id="2c63ff43-2b08-4da0-8cdc-9782c9452b1b" credit-line="Flashscore" guid="743edc1c-8c17-4e98-8c10-9bc49db7506d" original-width="3840" original-height="2160" /][p][b][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/bournemouth-OtpNdwrc/brentford-xYe7DwID/summary/stats/?mid=GnzE2NjI"]Catch up on the match stats with Flashscore.[/a][/b][/p]
