14th February 2023- Championship, Burnley 1 Watford 1 WFC.Net goal commentary: 1 Attendance: 18393 BBC Sport: Burnley’s hopes of a record-breaking 11th straight Championship win were dashed as they were held to a draw by Watford at Turf Moor. Sky Sports: A first-half finish from Joao Pedro gave the Hornets the lead but Vincent Kompany’s men escaped with a point after Obafemi popped up deep into stoppage time. Fran’s Watford Blog: In the end, a draw was a fair result, although it was very disappointing to concede right at the end having defended resolutely. The second half had been a real rearguard effort, but the chances for Burnley were again restricted. Hoedt and Porteous are looking really solid in the centre of defence, you would think that they had been playing together for years. What was especially pleasing was that it was a real team effort. The past couple of performances have been building to this and it was great to see the Hornets matching the team that are running away with the division. I was interested to hear the views of the Happy Valleys, who generally only see the games we play in the North. They were all very impressed and said that they hadn’t seen anything like that performance so far this season. It was certainly in stark contrast to their last match in Middlesbrough. The signs were very encouraging indeed and, with performances like that, we now need fear nobody in this division. Share this:TwitterFacebook
