From that moment on it was destined to be a goal.
18:45Paul GorstGoal! Brentford 1-2 Liverpool (Salah)Well, who said they were against VAR?! Mo Salah brings up his 100th Premier League goal for Liverpool after a wonderful ball over the top from Fabinho and a lengthy check at the monitors. It’s 2-1 to the visitors. They have been much better this half already.
We have to give him another shirt with 100 on! His numbers are insane, incredible but I know Mo and he thinks about the two he missed. Of course, an outstanding achievement. "20:45Paul GorstKlopp explains reasoning for withdrawing Jones at 3-2"When we decided to make the change it was 2-2 but we needed more up front and a clear structure. We needed to give them another player to give them something to think about. I think it worked really well.
Two points dropped. 19:17Keifer MacDonaldToney thinks he's won it... Ivan Toney smashes home what he thinks to be the winner from just inside the box. However, the linesman raises his flag instantly. The striker is clearly offside by a number of yards. 19:15Paul GorstVan Dijk keeps it level Crucial block from Van Dijk with his heels as Brentford chase a winner.
"There’s absolutely nothing to say about, I like how we connected up front, like I said we should’ve scored more but then if we win 3-2 or 4-3 we still had these struggles defensively. "They did really well Toney and Mbeumo and it was tricky for the boys, first half it was more the second balls we didn’t pick up in midfield then second half round the goals they just deflect and are always in a better position than us. We can do better in these situations we just didnt today then that’s not satisfying. Spectacular game, Brentford deserved the point. "20:25Keifer MacDonaldKlopp rues missed chances"Not sure 'enjoy' is the right word but to use the phrase 'wild ride', they deserved their three goals for the way they played and we obviously couldn’t deal with that properly with long balls today for different reasons.
Stay with the ECHO liveblog for the latest score updates, team news, analysis and much more from our team at the Brentford Community Stadium. 21:39Keifer MacDonaldGoodbye and GoodnightThat's all we have time for on today's matchday blog after the Reds were unable to captilise on mistakes of their rivals from earlier on in the afternoon as they drew 3-3 with Brentford. However, we have plenty of content and analysis from the game for you to digest and enjoy. Ian Doyle picks apart the Reds' second draw of the season, you can read that here. Paul Gorst gives his verdict from the Brentford Community Stadium, that can be found here. And lastly, but by no means least, Ian Doyles' player ratings.
It's a difficult place to come. It was a great atmosphere and they made it difficult for us. To go in the lead twice and not see it out is disappointing for us. "At 2-1 up we had one or two chances to finish the game off. It gives them that little bit of hope. That's football sometimes, we're disappointed with the result but we have to give credit to Brentford. "19:45Keifer MacDonaldJanelt hails Liverpool after drawVitaly Janelt, one of Brentfords goal scorers, heaped the praise on Jurgen Klopp's men when speaking to Sky Sports after the 3-3 draw at the Brentford Community Stadium.
We had massive chances. "20:30Keifer MacDonald'Nothing to say' Klopp refuses to blame Salah's glaring miss"These things happen, it was brilliant play. The pass from Robbo, to Diogo, Diogo two touch turns, Sadio one touch next pass and Mo alone, it’s brilliant football. You have to accept that Mo scores usually in those situations, today not.
"We should’ve scored more goals we had incredible chances, they had one more first half when Joel cleared it off the line. Second half I can’t remember any apart from the goals. "They deserved it, we played offensively or with the ball I don’t think you can control them much better because we created a lot of chances, a lot of clear cut chances and played offensively really well but couldn’t deal with them today defensively. "20:17Keifer MacDonaldIan Doyle's reviews the Reds' evening to forgetVirgil van DIjk appeared to struggle with physacility of Brentford's forward line this evening, especially when up against Ivan Toney. The Dutchman started the season in exceptional form and has displayed no signs of last season's ACL injury slowing him down.
"Liverpool I say it is one of the best teams in the world and I think the two times they go in front, we go back we go back, we have the mentality and the quality to score maybe if we have a bit of luck we score 4-3.

Poor defending from Liverpool today, but they also missed some big opportunities.
Brentford 3-3 Liverpool highlights - Jones, Salah and Jota goalsLiverpool and Brentford played out an entertaining first half in their Premier League clash. Mohamed Salah and Frank Onyeka both had shots cleared off the line in a frenetic opening 10 minutes before Ethan Pinnock opened the scoring for the home side midway through the first half. The Reds hit back through Diogo Jota's deft header before the Portuguese was denied a second from a great save by David Raya in the Brentford goal moments after Curtis Jones had hit the post.
However, the defender was unusually not as his best as he failed to deal with everything that the Bees threw at him over the course of the 90 minutes. You can read Ian Doyle analysis of a game the Dutch defender and Liverpool won't forget for a while here. 20:05Keifer MacDonaldFrank lauds the Reds as one of Europe's 'best' sides.
18:40Paul GorstThe Reds applying plenty of pressure Liverpool are attempting to turn the screw in the early going but three corners in a row have yielded little. It’s a brighter start than the first half, at least. 18:40Keifer MacDonaldRaya denies Jota againJota nearly bundles in his second of the game but Raya is on hand to tip behind for a corner. 18:37Paul GorstThiago's absence being felt this eveningLiverpool have missed Thiago Alcantara today. No-one in that midfield has got hold of the ball and calmed it down at any stage.
Corner to the hosts…19:13KEY EVENTGoal! Brentford 3-3 Liverpool (Wissa) Once again Alexander-Arnold is left outnumbered at the back post and Brentford take full advantage. It’s 3-3. The goal stands and Liverpool have to go again. Can they rally for a fourth? 19:11Paul GorstLiverpool really need a a fourth hereLiverpool are really probing a game-settling fourth here but Brentford are holding firm. A big 10 minutes or so here now.
19:08Keifer MacDonaldSalah fluffs his linesMane threads a perfectly weighted ball to Salah who finds himself one-on-one with Raya but the Egyptian is unable to grab his second of the evening as he fluffs his lines and fires over. That could have been it for Liverpool. 19:04Keifer MacDonaldJones' impact feltIt's fair to say Jones made a mark on his first Premier League start of the season.

It wasn't his finest performance in a Liverpool shirt as he failed to get going at certain points but his moment of brilliance will plant a seed in the mind of the Liverpool manager, no doubt. 19:00Paul GorstJones brought off as Reds switch shape Firmino is on or Jones to make it a 4-2-3-1 now for Liverpool. Robertson is in the book for hauling back Baptiste on the break.
Well punched away by Alisson. 18:58KEY EVENTGoal! Brentford 2-3 Liverpool (Jones)Curtis Jones fires Liverpool back into the lead with a thunderbolt from 20-yards out. 18:54KEY EVENTGoal! Brentford 2-2 Liverpool. (Janelt)I said a third might be needed. It most definitely is now. Brentford are back in it through Vitaly Janelt who bundles it home after Trent Alexander-Arnold had been left to deal with a three-v-one at the back post.
