Their goals against Brighton meant Mbeumo and Wissa have scored in the same match for the 18th time during their Brentford careers.

Only seven pairings in Premier League history have a better overall record.

“That’s an incredible achievement from the two of them,” said manager Frank after the win against Brighton.

“When you consistently over the past six seasons have produced top scorers, that must be something we’re doing right.

“I’m happy that Mbeumo is shining and is the main man now for us. But I think it’s a duo.

“Wissa is fantastic. He has scored actually more open-play goals than Brian. But Brian is the penalty taker, unbelievable at penalties, assists, work ethic, an unbelievable player.”

But they will have to seriously ramp up their scoring rate if they are to catch the record set by Tottenham duo Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, who both found the back of the net in 37 matches for Spurs in the same game.
