A 15 match unbeaten run would now be useful as long as they're not all draws. It's the hope that gets you.

FT. Good substitutions and a goal from a corner. Hard fought.

Stupid from Charles.

4 minutes added.

Fellows did well there. Nobody was coming to help him.

Good work by Peretz. Taking full control of the loose ball.

Another corner.

Watford looking tired. Three replacements coming on for them, one of them the kitchen sink presumably.

Another corner to defend.

Another corner for Watford. This time?

That is what Saints have been missing.

Saints new no9 scores!!

Larin on for Stewart. Edozie for a poor Leo.

Another Tonda HT talk seems to have done the business then.

Another Watford corner. When are they going to score from one?

Nothing going right for Leo. We've all had games like that.

Leo through on goal. Keeper saves

FK for Saints in Manning territory.

Dreadful corner from Leo.

Watford on top. FK for poor THB challenge.

And another corner. They'll score from one eventually.

Another Watford corner. Don't think Saints have had one yet.

Another poor cross from Saints.

I'd say Saints might consider themselves a tad fortunate not to be behind at HT. Watford have spurned some good chances with their more direct style. Meanwhile Saints have had a couple of openings but the build up is too slow again. There really is no reason to fanny around with it at the back all the time when in possession giving Watford time to get into their defensive shape. Considering it's a "must-win" game I'd suggest we'd better instead start to think about next season and whether Tonda's the right man to go for a promotion push.

Saints build up far too slow again. Contrast with Watford getting it through the lines much more quickly.
