Brentford boss Mark Warburton hailed his side’s character and fitness after they fought back to draw 2-2 with Nottingham Forest.
The promotion-chasing Bees were two down before Andre Gray scored with 10 minutes remaining, and their late pressure paid off when Jota headed home an injury-time equaliser.
Warburton declared: “They never give up. They’ve got that character and also the fitness – don’t forget that, it’s a testament to them and the medical staff.
“Jota scoring with a header shows what the team is about. It’s an important point.”
Warburton also admitted he was disappointed with Brentford’s defending in the build-up to Forest’s goals, which were both scored against the run of play.
“We had to dig ourselves out of a hole after dominating possession and chances,” he said.
“The ball travelled 60 or 70 yards [for the first goal] and that should never happen.
“For the second goal, the ball bounced and you need to get to the ball and try to stop that.
“With the amount of possession we had we’d have liked to have been in front at that stage.”
