On Sunday, a real surprise was recorded in the 18th round of the English Premier League matches.
The "Manchester United" team suffered a defeat on the road to the absolute underdog of the league, the "Watford" club. Taking advantage of the visitors' mistakes, "The Hornets" secured a victory with a score of 2:0.
This was the first victory for "Watford" after a series of five consecutive losses.
In the first half, both teams played rather sluggishly and the spectators did not see any goals. However, the "Watford" stadium was delighted in the second half of the match.
The second half started catastrophically for the visitors from Manchester - in the 50th minute, Ismaila Sarr scored his first goal in the Premier League. Despite the fact that he made a weak shot towards the upper corner of the goal, David De Gea failed to properly catch the ball and was forced to grab his head.
Standing at the penalty spot, Troy Deeney did not miss and secured his team's victory with a shot into the center of the goal, making it 2:0. The "Man Utd" team failed to recover even after the substitution where Paul Pogba appeared on the field.
The unexpected failure of the "Man Utd" team did not take advantage of the opportunity to approach the top four - now the "Red Devils" fall to the eighth position.
Result:
"Watford" 2 - 0 "Man Utd" 50' [1 - 0] I. Sarr 54' [2 - 0] T. Deeney (penalty)
