With the game level at 1-1 in the 81st minute, Yasin Ayari gave the ball away deep in his own third and Rayan Cherki found Haaland with a clever pass near the penalty spot, but Haaland's shot was tame and telegraphed for Bart Verbruggen to dive to his right and make the save with ease.

While his time at Watford was short and sweet, the young centre-back had begun to make a real impact at Vicarage Road.
