A win would only be enough for Watford to stay up, but it didn’t come. A 1-1 draw was not enough for Boothroyd’s boys to stay up, and now they are relegated to the Championship.

Nothing happened in the first half and it was left until the 53^rd minute for Vassell to capitalize on a shocking error from Ben Foster to edge City in front. Watford fought back and claimed a deserved equalizer in the 75^th minute when Priskin scored for the hornets. The final score remained 1-1 with the man of the match award going to Vassell.

This result means Watford are now officially relegated. Man City are not having a great season either and Pearce will be wanting a good finish and positive performances in the remaining matches.
