Igor Thiago celebrates Brazil call-up with goal in Brentford draw with Wolves

Brentford forward Igor Thiago marked his maiden summons to the Brazil national team by finding the net in a dramatic 2-2 Premier League stalemate with Wolves at the Gtech Community Stadium. The 22-year-old, informed of his Seleção inclusion earlier in the week, underlined his burgeoning promise by converting a pivotal second-half chance to help the Bees salvage a point. Thiago’s strike, his first since receiving the prestigious international nod, drew rapturous applause from the home faithful and ensured the momentum generated by his national-team breakthrough carried straight into domestic action. The result keeps Brentford in mid-table ahead of a congested festive schedule, while Thiago will now join up with Brazil’s contingent buoyed by timely form and confidence.
