DR Congo midfielder Yoanne Wissa: It's my best goal yet

Democratic Republic of Congo midfielder Yoanne Wissa has described his wonderstrike against Chelsea as his best yet.

Wissa netted Brentford's second goal in their 2-2 draw with Chelsea in Premier League action on Saturday. The 27-year-old acrobatically hooked a bicycle kick past goalkeeper Dorde Petrovic into the roof of the net midway through the second half and expressed delight with his effort.

"This is the best one," he said. "If I have to compare it, a goal against Oldham (in September 2021). But this is better because this is the Premier League against this kind of team.

"Especially in this time - it's not an easy time for every fan and player - it means a lot to me, especially after coming back from AFCON.

"In the second half we gave only one and a half chances away. The second half was much better.

"Everyone stepped up their level and the crowd was with us. This is how we want it, this is how Brentford play. It means a lot for the team. I'm very happy with that.

"It came from the players. This is what we wanted, some personality."
