Chris Kamara reflects on Watford's 4-2 win over West Ham in the Premier League.

Watford staged a remarkable recovery from 2-0 down to beat West Ham United 4-2 at the London Stadium as Walter Mazzarri won his first match in charge of the club.

Michail Antonio's two headers had appeared to put the home side well on course for all three points as half-time approached in Saturday's Premier League encounter, both goals set up by the returning Dimitri Payet.

However, Nigeria international Odion Ighalo pulled one goal back for the visitors with a deflected effort after 41 minutes, before Watford captain Troy Deeney took advantage of a terrible mix-up at the back between James Collins and Adrian to send the Hornets in level at the break.

And further goals from the in-form Etienne Capoue and Jose Holebas early in the second period completed a sensational turnaround for the Hornets, who moved out of the relegation zone as a result.
