Hull City drew for the third successive home game in the Premier League as they were held by Brentford.
The Tigers took the lead in the first half after they were awarded a penalty when Aaron Hickey fouled Tim Iroegbunam, with Brentford making a mess of playing out from the back.
BBC reports that Oli McBurnie stepped up to fire home from the spot.
But Brentford pushed for the equaliser and were deservedly level in the 63rd minute when Dango Ouattara took advantage of poor defending to strike from close range.

That mobilised Hull into action once more and they had the better opportunities to grab the winner in the remainder of the game.
Mohamed Belloumi showed good feet inside the box to create space, but sent his shot into the side-netting while Mohamed-Ali Cho’s low strike was kept out by the foot of Caoimhin Kelleher.
But there was to be no winning goal as Hull secured a point that maintains their unbeaten start at home in the Premier League, while for Brentford they remain undefeated on the road so far this campaign.
Brentford are sixth in the standings following this result, while Hull are 10th.
