Brentford to appeal Christian Norgaard red card as Thomas Frank says ref ‘not brave enough’ - The Bees centre-back was sent off following VAR intervention.

Christian Norgaard was sent off in the first half, but Brentford held Everton 0-0 to end their five-match losing run away from home.

Ten-man Brentford held Everton to a 0-0 draw at Goodison Park, marking their first away point in the Premier League this season.

The Bees centre-back was sent off following VAR intervention after catching goalkeeper Jordan Pickford on his knee.

VAR Anthony Backhouse sent Kavanagh to the screen and he overturned his original call, showing a straight red and providing Everton with a big opportunity to earn a crucial three points. The decision sparked frustration in the away dugout, where Brentford boss Thomas Frank was booked for his protests.
