Wolverhampton Wanderers v Watford

A Matt Doherty strike and an own goal from Daryl Janmaat secured Wolverhampton Wanderers' first win of the season as they beat Watford 2-0.

Wolves took the lead after 18 minutes, Pedro Neto getting in down the left and squaring for Doherty to finish.

Jose Holebas forced Rui Patricio into a good save early in the second half, but Wolves doubled their advantage just after the hour-mark.

Doherty's right-wing cross was flicked on by Morgan Gibbs-White, and Janmaat diverted the ball past his own goalkeeper Ben Foster. 

Abdoulaye Doucoure was denied by Rui Patricio late on as Wolves held on to move up to 13th on seven points.

Watford lie five points back in last place.
