Incredible stuff!

Knockaert dives to win a last minute penalty, goalie saves, Knockaert misses the rebound and Watford break and score.

Shades of Brentford vs Donny.

Justice done I feel.

Ha. Fair enough, was following all the games on SSN that day; heard it was good but didn't actually watch that game.
Obviously the Hull vs. Cardiff game had a similar ending as well, though in the end it didn't make much difference.
Basically lower leagues is where it is at.

To be fair, I would probably say this one was better. There was just a poetic justice to that Watford goal on the break. Disgraceful dive by Knockaert to win the pen.

Yeah, I wasn't really bothered who won when watching Hull vs Cardiff last week. But from the decent football Watford were playing today, plus the injustice of the penalty/dive I wanted Watford to win, making it all the more special a finish.

I FCUKING LOVE THE PLAY-OFFS!

Genuinely don't understand people who weren't moved to tears by the end of that game.

The referee today was Micheal Oliver who also refereed Brentford Vs Doncaster on the final day. Incredible stuff.

I'm delighted that he got what he deserves the cheating little git.
Couldn't have worked out better, what with him being the penalty taker as well. 8)

Better also because Watford's goal was decisive. Donny's was icing on the cake - they were going up anyway.
