Ivan Toney marked his return from an eight-month ban for breaking gambling rules by scoring with his first shot as Brentford registered a controversial victory in a five-goal thriller with Nottingham Forest.
It was Toney's first goal in 266 days since he scored the equaliser against Forest in the corresponding fixture last season on 29 April.
After running to the bench to celebrate his goal, Toney raised a shirt proclaiming 'For You Uncle Brian', which is believed to be in honour of a family member.
The visitors were furious with the goal, believing Brentford had been allowed to move the ball into a more advantageous position that allowed Toney to curl a low shot beyond Forest keeper Matt Turner.
