Nathan Trott’s AFC Wimbledon boss Wally Downes was able to take plenty of positives from Wimbledon’s second pre-season friendly, against good Championship opposition.
The Dons restricted Brentford to a goalless first-half, but the visitors netted three times following the break – with two goals inside the final ten minutes to wrap up a 3-0 victory. However, it still proved to be a useful experience for Wimbledon’s manager with the workout ticking many boxes early in pre-season as they gained match fitness.
New goalkeeper Trott played the entire game.
