Ivan Toney put his England snub behind him by scoring twice, including an injury-time winner, to give Brentford a memorable 2-1 victory at Manchester City.

The Brentford captain delivered the perfect response to missing out on Gareth Southgate's 26-man England squad for Qatar to stun the reigning champions and leave Arsenal top of the league at Christmas.

The Soccer Saturday panel react to Ivan Toney's late winner for Brentford at the Etihad.

City, who missed the chance to move top of the Premier League, were frustrated by a mixture of poor finishing, wasteful passing and resilient Brentford defending before Toney capped a statement performance by sensationally tapping in a 97th-minute winner.

How Toney delivered the perfect response

Brentford should have been ahead even before Toney nodded in for the lead. Frank Onyeka was denied by Ederson when he burst through in just the fourth minute and then the City goalkeeper had to push away Toney's shot from inside the area.
