Tour draw satisfies Bees boss

Uwe Rosler was pleased with Brentford's performance after they shared a 1-1 draw with ZFC Meuselwitz in the opening game of their German tour.

Jake Reeves' first-half strike looked to have handed the dominant visitors a deserved win, only for a late Carsten Weis strike to deny them.

Rosler told the club's official website: "We have to be more clinical but when you have a lot of young players, obviously you have to calculate that in - in pre-season that's OK."

The Bees boss knows the area well, having been raised only a few miles from ZFC Meuselwitz, and he was quick to praise the generosity of the hosts.

He added: "We always felt welcome from the first minute we arrived and our supporters enjoyed it."
