Tigers sunk by late Bean bullet
Marcus Bean scored two minutes from time as Brentford made the Carling Cup third round with a deserved 2-1 win over Hull at Griffin Park.[LNB] Bean stooped low in the box 10 yards out to power Charlie MacDonald's cross into the bottom corner and send the home supporters wild.[LNB]It was no more than the League One outfit deserved for outplaying the Tigers for long spells of a thrilling cup tie.[LNB]But it did not start well for the Bees, striker Robbie Simpson heading back across his own goal for the waiting Mark Cullen to slam home for the visitors.[LNB]But midway through the half Brentford responded, this time Simpson curling a beauty over the wall into the top corner from the edge of the box.[LNB]Nigel Pearson's side started the brighter after the break when Robert Koren saw his chipped effort from 20 yards bounce back off the angle.[LNB]Minutes later Jamie Devitt sent an angled drive just wide before Brentford began the fightback.[LNB]It was all the Londoners for the final half-hour and only a superb goal-line stop from City keeper Matt Duke denied Simpson's near-post header.[LNB]Brentford also hit the woodwork when winger Myles Weston saw his cross skim the top of the bar before Bean's thrilling finale.
