No other team in Premier League history has started as many games as quickly as Brentford.

Brentford became the first team to score inside a minute in three straight Premier League matches thanks to Bryan Mbeumo’s thumping finish just 37 seconds into Saturday’s contest against West Ham United.

Yoane Wissa set Brentford on a historic pace with the opening goal 22 seconds into an eventual 2-1 loss to Manchester City on Sept. 14. Mbeumo then scored 23 seconds into a 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

As in the last two games, Thomas Frank’s side couldn’t turn the early lead into three points. Tomas Soucek responded for West Ham in the 54th minute to hold Brentford to a 1-1 draw at Gtech Community Stadium, leaving the hosts in 12th place with just two wins in six outings.
