Match Thread: WATFORD v BRIGHTON

Watford passing is improving.

Tozser takes a free kick. 1st corner of the afternoon to Watford. Merkel takes....Hall nutmegs a defender and wins a 2 nd corner. Keeper takes.

Brighton break chaos in the Watford defence for a minute.

 

FF shoots straight at keeper from 6yds

 

Brighton win their 1st corner. Short one, but finishes up in the Rookery.

 

Now Brighton start mounting pressure on Watford's goal with a couple of moves which threaten

 

Cassetti is quality when he crosses from the wing.

FF twisting and turning, pressure from the Horns.

 

The pitch is a bit patchy, soft and hard, creating some problems for the players.

Almunia punches clear as winger gets in behind our defence.

 

Brighton having a better spell again. Seems to sway back and forth.

Corner to Brighton. Headed well over the bar.

 

Lopez nasty tackle on FF. Talking to by the ref.

 

Getting a bit scrappy. 7 minutes of the half left.

Forest 1-1 Yeovil

 

Toszer has had a good first half in his Watford debut and looks a good addition. Game a little scrappy at the moment though Toszer plays good ball to Cassetti but comes to nothing. Brighton make change bring on an out and out winger in Lua Lua

 

Brighton change. Forster-Caskey off, LuaLua on.

 

Mathew Upson gets friendly with Deeney and wraps his arms all round him no foul though!!

 

Ref not going down too well.

LuaLua great shot that hits the bar/upright.

 

Lua Lua from tighest of angels having gone past Cassetti hits angle of bar and post Watford so lucky Brighton should have scored from follow up

 

Referee is starting to lose grip on game fouls going unpunished

 

Greer handing things out. Ref needs to get a grip

1 added minute.

HALF TIME: Watford 1-0 Brighton

 

Halftime Watford 1 Brighton 0

 

According to the BBC we have only had 35% of the possession. This seems very low.

 

Greer and Upson seem very slow. Maybe chance to let our speedy striker have a few minutes and see what he can do?

 

Leading at half-time. get in there!
