Shandon Baptiste’s second-half goal capped off a high-powered Premier League Summer Series finale for both Brentford and Aston Villa, a 3-3 draw at FedExField in Maryland on Sunday.
Josh DaSilva — what a goal — and Bryan Mbeumo also scored to give the Bees a 2-0 lead, but Ezri Konsa, Moussa Diaby, and Matty Cash delivered wonderful goals to put Villa ahead 3-2 at halftime.
Baptiste’s equalizer means Brentford got its first point of the Summer Series, forcing Aston Villa to wait through Chelsea vs Fulham to see if it’s won the PL Summer Series Trophy.

Villa drew 3-3 against Newcastle in their Summer Series opener in Philadelphia, then beat Fulham 2-0 in Orlando on Wednesday as Unai Emery’s side are unbeaten and lead the way after two games, while new star signing Moussa Diaby is already among the goals.
Brentford lost their opener 3-2 to Fulham in Philly and then lost 2-0 to Brighton in Atlanta as Thomas Frank’s side are still getting up to speed in preseason and not having Ivan Toney around is obviously a huge miss as they sit bottom of the table.
