Although they are 14 places behind their opponents in the rankings, Watford have not given up in the earliest match on the evening of June 20 in the Premier League.
The first half of the first half was the time Watford and Leicester explored each other. Despite having a stronger attack with Jamie Vardy and James Maddison, the away team is not in a hurry to advance. Meanwhile, Watford captain Troy Deeney started and instructed his teammates not to rush.
In the second half of the first half, the pace of the match was accelerated. Watford was the team with the first dangerous situation but Doucoure shot quite carelessly and could not beat goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.
In the second half, Watford continued to press the field in search of the opening goal. In just the first 15 minutes of the second half, the home team had scored 4 more times and all 4 were dangerous situations.
It was not until Gray was put on the field that Leicester gradually regained the initiative. After a period of not being able to show much from the beginning of the match, Maddison became more aggressive, directly having a very difficult shot from the second line, causing goalkeeper Ben Foster to show his talent to block.
The next 15 minutes witnessed the two teams' crossing of the field. In the 90th minute, a mistake on the right wing by Watford cost them.
In a familiar high-up, left-back Ben Chilwell of the away team had space and fired a very strong shot, the ball flew to the top corner of the goal, causing Foster's hand to wrap. 1-0 for the Foxes and it seemed like the end result.
But just 3 minutes later, it was a defender who scored. This time it was Watford centre-back cra cra cra cra Dawson. In a chaotic performance in the Leicester penalty area, Dawson sent a superb hook to Schmeichel.
1-1 for Watford and that was the final score of the match. The remaining 2 minutes of extra time were not enough for both sides to take a risk.
1 point against the 3rd-placed team makes Watford more confident in the relegation race and temporarily rise to 16th place. Meanwhile, Leicester City still maintained 3rd place, 6 points ahead of Chelsea and played 1 more match.
