Relegated Watford Off to a Good Start 

Watford, which ended its 2019/20 Premier league season with only 8 wins, making 34 points which saw them being relegated to EFL Championship, had a promising start in their new league, EFL Championship.

Watford, who are in their pursuit to bounce back to the England professional league, were 1 nil victorious in their 2020/21 EFL Championship opening match of the season against Middlesbrough this evening.

Watford took command of the match, opening the scoring sheet of the season in the 11^th minute through their defender Cathcart.

Middlesbrough, though tried to threaten several times through their striker Assombalonga, could not overcome Watford who had a 51% ball possession.

Middlesbrough managed 15 shots, of which four of them were on target but none could hit the net in the 90 minutes of play.

This maybe a wakeup call for Warnock who needs to improve his team’s conversion which was triumphed by Watford’s 2 shorts on target.

The rest of Matchday 1 of 46 in the EFL Championship will be played tomorrow, 2 of them at 1330 Hours while the other 9 will kick off at 1600 hours.
