Super Eagles forward, Isaac Success, has hailed Watford coach, Javi Gracia and his teammates and attributes the team’s 2-0 win over Newcastle in the Fourth Round of the Emirates FA Cup at St. James’ Park on Saturday to a collective ‘big fight.
Andre Gray shot Watford into lead in the 61st minute of the match. Success who played the entire duration of the game sealed the win for the Hornets with a 90th minute goal.
The goal was his third in four consecutives matches in both the Carabao Cup and Emirates FA Cup.
“Credit to the coach and to the team for a great performance today. It was a big fight,” Success told Watford’s official website.
“It was a good game for us after 11 changes. It’s not an easy decision for the coach, because he has so much confidence in the players.
“We are working hard and we are happy to proceed to the next round.”
Watford manager Javi Gracia has good words for Success’ contribution in the win while praising the entire team for working hard to reach the Fifth Round of the FA Cup.
“He scored at the end of the game, but he worked a lot during the game, fighting with all the defenders and trying to give different attacking options. I think the goal was the reward he deserved,” Gracia remarked.
