Stefano Okaka brace sends Watford on way to win over Everton

Watford picked up their first win against Everton since 1987 as Stefano Okaka's brace helped them to seal a 3-2 victory.

Everton went ahead when Gareth Barry -- making his 609th Premier League appearance (joint-second of all-time) -- chipped a ball over the top to find Romelu Lukaku free and he held off his marker to slot between the goalkeeper's legs.

But the Hornets went level before half-time as Okaka started the move by playing the ball out to Nordin Amrabat and then got on the end of his cross with a wonderful backheel into the net.
