Capoue should have seen red for Zaha challenge, blasts Souness
Watford’s Etienne Capoue should have been shown a red card for his challenge on Crystal Palace’s Wilfred Zaha during the pair’s Premier League encounter, according to Graeme Souness.
The Hornets kept their perfect start to the new season intact with a 2-1 victory at Vicarage Road , winning their opening three games in the top-tier for the first time in their history.
But the game was marred by a challenge on Palace striker Zaha in the first half that saw Capoue booked for an apparent stamp in the region of the former’s Achilles tendon.
