Craig Bryson's goal gives Derby County narrow win away at Watford

Craig Bryson score a late goal as table toppers Derby County beat Watford 2-1.

A Craig Bryson goal helped to secure league leaders Derby County a crucial away win at promotion-chasing Watford this afternoon.

Bryson's shot from outside the area flew into the top corner with less than 10 minutes to go in an entertaining game which was full of attacking football.

Jordan Ibe gave Derby a half-time lead when he cut inside and curled a shot into the far corner, before Gianni Amari equalised in the second half.

Derby's half-time lead was deserved after a dominant opening period where they created dozens of chances, including a shot from Jeff Hendricks which was tipped onto the post.

Watford had their own chances in the first half but both Troy Deeney and Fernando Forestieri wasted good opportunities before they finally equalised after the break.

Substitute Munari grabbed his third of the season when he lashed the ball past Jack Butland from close range and Watford felt the tides turn, until Bryson scored.

Jack Butland was still required to make a fine save from Munari late on but Bryson's goal proved to be the winner and Watford succumbed to their first home defeat this season.
