Brentford boss Thomas Frank admitted some frustration after their 3-3 draw at Aston Villa.

The Bees were leading 2-3 before Ollie Watkins struck on 80 minutes for Villa.

"It was an average first half. In my opinion, I felt that we defended very well - apart from one situation, which is irritating me," Frank said.

It was an average second half. We conceded after a minute, which is also irritating.

But, after that, all credit to the players: the mentality, character, determination, everything to turn this around.

Not many teams would be able to do that here at Villa Park against this Aston Villa team that are in form, fantastic at home. That was very impressive.

Overall, it was a fine point, but we still had the opportunity to win it. The players are doing everything they can, but I would have really liked three points."

Frank added: We really, really want that win, but it's been good to get points three games in a row, which has been difficult to put these consistent run of games.

So we're getting points together - that's a positive."
