Mark Flekken was the shootout hero, but he was not happy with the role he played in Sheffield Wednesday鈥檚 equaliser.

The goalkeeper tried to launch a Brentford counter attack after catching a corner, but Gassama intercepted his throw and scored.

"At the moment I caught the corner kick I had so many possibilities but I took the wrong one," he told Sky Sports after the match.

"The mistake I made helpd a lot to bring our mental side down. It took away the control we had. It went from a controlled game to an open game. I need to learn from that.

"I went to the wrong side twice at the start [of the shootout]. That doesn't help your confidence in a shootout but luckily I saved the last one.

"It鈥檚 not the first and only mistake I鈥檝e made in my career. I鈥檓 31 now with quite some experience, that helps a lot [to come back from] a mistake like that."
