At the bottom of the table there is a great tension. "Watford" team was just a little away from victory, which would allow them to breathe more freely, but two goals conceded at the end of the match resulted in a 2:1 defeat to "Brentford". During the course of the match, "Brentford" had a little more initiative, but towards the end of the first half, Claudio Ranieri's players broke the deadlock. In the 24th minute, after Tom Cleverley lifted a corner kick, Emmanuel Dennis sent the ball into the net with a header. It seemed that the "Watford" team could take away vital three points, but they had to be disappointed at the end of the match. In the 84th minute, after a high pass from Marcus Forss, Pontus Jansson scored with a header, making the score 1:1. To make matters worse, in the 90+5th minute, a penalty kick was awarded to the away team. William Troost-Ekong committed a foul in the penalty area and his mistake cost "Watford" dearly. Bryan Mbeumo cold-bloodedly converted the penalty and extended the lead for his team by three points. This defeat complicates the situation for the "Watford" team. Claudio Ranieri's players are currently in 17th place, trailing the "Burnley" players in the relegation zone by 3 points, although the latter have played two fewer matches. Meanwhile, the "Brentford" players temporarily rise to ninth place on the table.
