Onyeka helps 10-man Brentford beat Wolverhampton Wanderers

The Nigeria midfielder played a role as the Bees grabbed their second league win of the season

Frank Onyeka came off the bench as 10-man Brentford stunned Wolverhampton Wanderers in Saturday's Premier League match.

The 23-year-old replaced Sergi Canos in the 68th minute, four minutes after Shandon Baptiste was given his marching orders after his second yellow card.

The outing was Onyeka's third Premier League appearance of the season following his permanent switch from Midtjylland in August
