FA Cup Round 3 Replay: Watford 2-0 Bristol City

On to Round 4!

Looking like they knew how to handle a League One side for a change and welcoming the returns of Ikechi Anya and Almen Abdi, The Hornets turned a round of ‘who wants to lose this’ into a well-earned win.

A Karleigh Osborne own goal (later credited to Davide Faraoni) at the half-hour mark gave Watford the lead, but it was Lewis McGugan that left-footed the clincher in at 64 minutes and set up Round 4 against the winner of tomorrow night’s Manchester City/Blackburn Rovers match.

Meanwhile, it’s back to league play Saturday, January 18 at Bournemouth, 4-1 winners over Burton Albion in cup play today. Kickoff is 9:00 am St. Louis time.
