In a pre-season friendly at Oliver Connell & Son Community Stadium, Hanwell Town emerged victorious with a 5-1 win over Brentford U19. The home side dominated the first half, scoring four goals, leaving Brentford's young team struggling to keep up. The match kicked off with Hanwell's Eddie Cooper opening the scoring in the second minute with a header from a corner.

Just seven minutes later, George Knight doubled Hanwell's lead as he pounced on a poorly cleared corner. The first half ended with Hanwell leading 3-0. Brentford's Connor Wolfheimer made a crucial save on the 22nd minute, deflecting away a curling strike from the edge of the box. Hanwell's George Knight extended their lead by 10 minutes in the second half, scoring his second goal of the match with a header from another corner.

Brentford tried to improve their performance in the second half, but they managed to score only once. Trialist C put Brentford ahead in the 63rd minute, with Jai Bansoodeb providing the assist. Despite the late goal, Hanwell sealed the win with a fifth goal, making it 5-1, proving to be a tough challenge for the young Brentford team.
