Watford hand Man Utd another heavy loss

Sep 18, 2016 - 1:09 PM Manchester United have suffered their third defeat in eight days as they were beaten 3-1 at Watford in the Premier League.

Substitute Juan Zuniga scored the vital second goal for Watford with his first touch eight minutes from time on Sunday and Troy Deeney put the icing on the cake with a last-minute penalty.

Watford, who claimed their first win over United in 30 years, moved into the top half of the table while United remained sixth, six points behind leaders Manchester City.

Etienne Capoue put Watford in front after 34 minutes only for Marcus Rashford to equalise for United just after the hour mark.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic almost put United in front but his header was well saved by Heurelho Gomes before Zuniga swept in with a superb finish before Deeney finished things off from the spot.
