12th December 2015- Premier League, Sunderland 0 Watford 1 https://watford.fcdb.info/index.php?page=matches https://www.premierleague.com/en/match/803320/sunderland-vs-watford/overview BBC: Odion Ighalo’s early goal gave Watford their third successive win and left Sunderland stuck in the bottom three. Ighalo and Black Cats defender Sebastian Coates met Allan Nyom’s low cross at the near post and diverted the ball past Costel Pantilimon. Fran’s Watford Blog: Watford had the perfect start to the game, taking the lead after 4 minutes. In real time, I thought that Ighalo had missed Nyom’s cross and the keeper had turned it in, but I was doing Odion a grave disservice as the ball had been poked goalwards and what I saw was it going through the goalie’s legs. Whoever had provided the final touch, it was Ighalo’s battling presence that led to the goal.
