Watford 1-1 Swansea City: Hornets fight back to draw after Ryan Andrews own goal

Watford's struggles under Valerien Ismael continued as they battled to a 1-1 draw with Swansea City.

The Hornets fell behind in comical fashion early on when goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann raced out of his goal and teenage full-back Ryan Andrews headed into his own net.

Swansea wasted chances to stretch their advantage before the break, before Watford's second-half improvement was rewarded when Wesley Hoedt headed goalwards and fellow centre-back Ryan Porteous appeared to help the ball over the line.

The draw means Watford have taken only six points from their last nine matches, a dispiriting sequence which has prompted questions over the future of head coach Ismael.
