Asmir Begovic loses his head
However, Brentford were back on level terms less than 10 minutes later when referee Jarred Gillett awarded a penalty.
Ivan Toney stepped up and converted past Asmir Begovic with an excellent spot-kick.
Toney then grabbed the ball and went to run back to his own half before Begovic lost his head.
The 33-year-old - who previously played for Portsmouth, Stoke City and Chelsea - ran after the Brentford striker while trying to wrestle the ball back.
The Bosnia and Herzegovina international grabbed the ball before theatrically falling to the ground after a coming together with Toney.
Both Begovic and Toney were shown yellow cards by the referee.
Watch the strange incident in full here…
What was Begovic thinking?!
Let’s check out some of the reaction from fans…
