On target: Charlie MacDonald
Ian Gibb11 April 2012
Charlie MacDonald scored his 12th goal of the season for Brentford, after signing a new two-year deal.
It looked like MacDonald had struck the winner, only for play-off hopefuls Colchester to draw 3‑3 through David Prutton.
The Bees had led 2-0, through David Hunt and Leon Legge, only for Hunt to concede an own goal and Anthony Wordsworth to make it 2-2.
But Brentford boss Andy Scott was pleased with his team's display.
He said: "It's a good point in the end but when you've led three times it's disappointing not to come away with all three. I'm very proud of the boys. They worked their socks off."
