Ighalo Misses Open Net; Success Stars As Man Utd Are Stung By The Hornets
Published: September 18, 2016
The Hornets opened scoring in the 34th minute through Capoue but ought to have taken the lead earlier, with Ighalo missing an open net on 13 minutes after a mistake by De Gea, before heading over the bar from a Cathcart cross.
Rashford restored parity for the visitors just after the hour mark, only for substitute Zúñiga to restore Watford’s one goal lead with his second touch of the ball, with six minutes remaining.
