Lee hero as Bees sting Everton
Richard Lee wrote himself into Brentford folklore by saving the penalty which knocked Everton out of a cracking Carling Cup tie at Griffin Park.
The scores were level at 1-1 after extra time after Gary Alexander had equalised for the npower League One side after Seamus Coleman's first Everton goal had given David Moyes' side the lead.
Lee saved Jermaine Beckford's spot kick with the scores at 3-3 before Charlie MacDonald, who had earlier missed a penalty in normal time, scored to put the pressure on Phil Jagielka, who fired his shot at the post to send the home fans into ecstasy.
Everton took the lead when Coleman drove home from close range in just the sixth minute. But Alexander`s header four minutes before the break levelled matters and the two sides had to be separated by a shootout.
It was a deserved win for Brentford, while Everton's miserable start to the season continues.
