Watford manager Walter Mazzarri believes Troy Deeney's wonder-goal against West Ham bears comparison to the genius finishing of Diego Maradona.
The Hornets captain produced an exceptional strike, curling the ball into the top right corner from a difficult angle to score Watford's second goal in last week's 4-2 Premier League victory.
It was perhaps the highest quality moment of a career largely built on industry and physicality, and crucially took Watford level on the stroke of half-time.
Mazzarri has become aware of Deeney's cult hero status at Watford in the same way his time at Napoli gave him knowledge of Maradona's significance in Naples.
