Dango Ouattara grabs late draw for Brentford against Crystal Palace

Dango Ouattara’s late equaliser snatched a 2-2 draw for Brentford against Crystal Palace to keep their European dream alive.

Ouattara, who had earlier scored the luckiest goal of the season to cancel out Ismaila Sarr’s penalty, struck at the death after Adam Wharton had finally opened his goal account for Palace.

England midfielder Wharton had not managed to find the net in his previous 93 appearances for the Eagles, since joining from Blackburn more than two years ago.

But when the 22-year-old took aim from 20 yards early in the second half at the Gtech Stadium, he got his reward at last.

However, with just two minutes remaining Ouattara secured a point for the Bees, who remain in the hunt for Europe for the first time in their history.
