‘We were better prepared’- Troost-Ekong discusses Watford win against Barnsley

 Troy Deeney’s first-half strike helped the Hornets secure all points at stake against Valerien Ismael’s Tykes at Vicarage Road on Tuesday evening

William Troost-Ekong has attributed Watford’s 1-0 win over Barnsley in Tuesday’s English Championship clash to better preparation.


The Hornets slumped to a 1-0 defeat to the Tykes in the first-leg played in October 2020 thanks to a sixth-minute strike by Alex Mowatt.


However, Xisco Munoz’s men retaliated their loss by the same goal margin after captain Troy Deeney beat goalkeeper Jack Walton from the penalty spot in the 27th minute.
