Match in a Minute: Watford 2-1 Leicester

By Andrew Dickson

Matt Le Tissier reviews Watford's 2-1 win over Leicester from the Premier League.

Watch as Matt Le Tissier gives his Match in a Minute verdict following Watford's 2-1 win over Leicester City at Vicarage Road.

It was a remarkable start to the game as all the goals were scored in the opening 15 minutes - with Etienne Capoue's opener coming just 32 seconds after the first whistle.

Roberto Pereyra scored a fine second to enhance Watford's chances of victory but Leicester responded quickly as they pulled one back through Riyad Mahrez's penalty three minutes later.

The defending Premier League champions could not find a second goal and suffered their sixth defeat in 12 matches.

That means they have already lost twice as many top flight fixtures as they did last season despite playing less than a third of the campaign so far.

By contrast, Watford's encouraging return to Premier League life goes on and they seem to be gathering momentum after a third win in five games.

While their results are varied, they are competing well and enhanced their position by moving up to eighth with their latest victory.
