Watford is already returning to the Championship after a year in the Premier League. The relegation of the Hornets is a fact after the 1-0 defeat on the field of Crystal Palace.
Watford has not had much fun with his season in the Premier League. The euphoria of last year’s promotion soon gave way to reality. Watford has only been able to win 6 times so far, and the experienced Roy Hodgson was also unable to turn the tide after the dismissal of Claudio Ranieri.
Crystal Palace knocked Watford out on Saturday afternoon in a game that was illustrative of the Hornets’ season. The home team converted a penalty after hands by Kamara, who turned out to be the worst of the match in the 2nd half when he ran into his 2nd yellow card.
In an otherwise lackluster match, there was no longer a miracle for Watford, the club that employs many players with a Belgian past, including Kabasele, Dennis, Kalu and Troost-Ekong. They can now prepare for Championship football.
