Relive Brentford's play-off final win over Swansea

Brentford midfielder Mathias Jensen speaking to Sky Sports:

"I broke down in tears. I couldn't even celebrate.

"After last season, having only 10 days off, and then having injuries to important players all season...

"I knew that the play-off record wasn't good but it wasn't a focus for us.

"We were focussed on winning the game and we had a really good feeling after beating Bournemouth."

Brentford are a top-flight club for the first time in 74 years and it seems safe to say that anyone of a Brentford persuasion is in for a good evening... and possibly quite a rough morning tomorrow!

What a journey for Brentford, to get to where they are are. They will look to keep hold of their best players.

I'm gutted for the Swansea lads, as long as they keep hold of Steve Cooper they should be up there again next season.

Brentford boss Thomas Frank speaking to Sky Sports:

"I'm completely empty right now. I don't know if I can describe it. It's been such a long journey.

"There's been ups and downs..."

And with that Frank is carried away by some of his players and thrown in the air!

"This group of players is incredible.

"Everyone has played a major part in this.

"Somebody said to me that we need two hands and 10 fingers to lift the trophy and we have done it on our 10th attempt.

"The feeling was calm and relaxed and ready to be ruthless.

"We didn't talk about last year. We focused on this.

"Right now I want to get drunk and then worry about the Premier League tomorrow!"

The celebrations have begun. The Brentford fans are drenched in glorious Wembley sunshine. The play-off agony for Brentford is finally over!

They have built from last year, they've come back and they've got the job done today. You can see the smiles, the tears of joy.

Brentford midfielder Emiliano Marcondes is out of contract at the end of next month and says he has not been offered a new one yet.

He scored their second goal today and is keen to test himself in the Premier League.

"To come from a small town in Denmark and make it to the Premier League is unbelievable," he told Sky Sports.

"When the owner gets something to drink maybe I'll ask about a contract again!"

Brentford's players paraded the play-off final trophy to their fans as their supporters threw social distancing out of the window and sung along to the Beatles hit Hey Jude.

Bees owner Matthew Benham is down on the Wembley turf amid the celebrations.

What a debt the club owe to him.

Since taking over the running of the club from Bees United - the club's supporters' trust - in 2012, Brentford have been transformed.

He's introducing a 'Moneyball' recruitment policy, bankrolled a new stadium near Kew Bridge and thought outside the box for coaching appointments.

Now a place in the Premier League for the first time awaits.

Steve Cooper has done a brilliant job in the last two years. Swansea haven't spent a lot of money. It will be interesting for me to see how they will look next season, will Ayew be there? They have a couple of players who are coming to the end of their careers. They certainly have the core there, but it will be an interesting summer for them.

Brentford goalscorer Ivan Toney speaking to Sky Sports:

"It's crazy. I've got no words, my voice is going.

"It's the best dressing room I've been in, I've loved every minute of it.

"I'm in the Premier League with the best bunch of boys I could ever dream of.

"I'm a Premier League striker now and I can't wait to score goals there."

How Brentford fared last time out in the top flight...

Fans of both the Bees and Leeds will be hoping next season doesn't play out like this.

Pontus Jansson lifts the play-off trophy aloft and the celebrations really begin.

Brentford will be the 50th team to play in the Premier League and the first new one to the league since Brighton and Huddersfield went up in 2017.

Andre Ayew scored 19 goals for Swansea this season but his contract is up this summer and he's on BIG wages.

He'll almost certainly be off and the three loanees who started today's game all have time left on their deals at their parent clubs and are unlikely to return.

The Brentford players celebrate in a big circle midway inside their half.

Then there are cheers as individual players run towards their fans.

Fair play to the Swansea supporters, how have stayed until the bitter end to applaud their side for their efforts.

The Welsh club had a difficult afternoon, and never really looked capable of a comeback from 2-0 down even before Jay Fulton's red card.

The stage is now being set for Brentford's trophy presentation.

And they're not wasting any time...

A lot of us love the way Brentford have played this season. I'm dying to see them in the Premier League.

Brentford defender Pontus Jansson speaking to Sky Sports:

"It's unbelievable, I'm so proud.

"It's been a hard year but we're finally there.

"This year we had a very strong group and we believed in it from day one.

"A lot Leeds fans have been behind me and all of Brentford this season.

"I could go home to Sweden and retire no as this is what I have dreamed of. I wont though!

"A lot of people questioned my move here but I saw something in Brentford and I brought things here that I learned from Marcelo Bielsa at Leeds. I brought his ideas here with me."

Finally, at the 10th attempt, Brentford have won promotion through the EFL play-offs.

Nine months on from a extra-time defeat by Fulham, the Bees have returned to Wembley to seal promotion.

The west London club join a select group of clubs who have lost a second-tier play-off final but won it the next, joining Leicester (1994), Crystal Palace (1997) West Ham (2005) and Aston Villa (2019).

What a job head coach Thomas Frank has done to lead Brentford back to the national stadium and see his side put in the performance they failed to last August.

He becomes the first Danish boss to win promotion to the Premier League.

Their supporters had become accustomed used to heart-break in the play-offs. This result will be celebrated in the famous four pubs which surround their old Griffin Park home, along with several other hostelries in that part of the capital.
