Watford 3-2 Norwich City: Brilliant Yaser Asprilla goal completes comeback victory for Hornets

Yaser Asprilla's delightful strike completed a brilliant Watford fightback from two goals down against Norwich City.

The Colombia international showed quick feet to dance the ball around Canaries goalkeeper George Long and finish to win it for the Hornets in the second half.

Norwich seemed to be on course for a third consecutive victory as a header from Danny Batth and a stunning strike by South Korea forward Hwang Ui-jo put them two goals up after only 12 minutes.

Watford are made of sterner stuff under manager Valerien Ismael, however, and they fought back to parity after Ismael Kone's fierce drive and a Mileta Rajovic header changed the game inside three minutes.
