WHO'S GOING TO BE YOUR

MAN OF THE MATCH?

Match summary

Ben Foster produced an impressive goalkeeping display to earn Watford a 0-0 draw at Brighton & Hove Albion.

There were few chances in the first half, but Jurgen Locadia came closest as his back-post header was clawed out of the top corner by Foster.

Watford winger Ken Sema headed over the away side's best chance from close range under pressure from Brighton's defence shortly after the restart.

Foster's heroics continued in the 80th minute, tipping over another Locadia header before clearing a Shane Duffy overhead kick off the line with his feet from the next corner.

The Watford goalkeeper was needed again in the 86th minute, saving from Florin Andone when the Brighton striker broke into the area.

Brighton stay in 13th place on 27 points, while a draw moves Watford into eighth position on 34 points.
