EMERSON ROYAL earned a point for the visitors following a hectic first half containing all four goals during today’s intriguing London derby.
In front of 17,066 fans this afternoon, the Lilywhites embarked on life without Harry Kane, following the England captain’s move to Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, with the club’s new boss Ange Postecoglu opting for Son Heung-Min as captain. While Micky van de Ven, who arrived last week from Wolfsburg, started along with fellow new boy James Maddison.
As expected, Thomas Frank left David Raya out of the Bees squad after interest from Arsenal, with Mark Flekken starting in goal after being signed from Freiburg this summer. Guglielmo Vicario started between the sticks for the visitors.
