Watford boss Gracia: A positive point

Watford and Burnley played out a 0-0 stalemate at Vicarage Road on Saturday.

To mark two years since Graham Taylor's passing, the Hornets paid tribute with a complimentary drink for the club's fans, and a scarf display in the moments before kick-off.

Watford boss Javi Gracia reflected: “You always want more but if you don't play your better game, then it is positive to get a point. Today on a special day for the club, for all of us, we wanted to get a victory.

“To play against Burnley you always need to be constant, to be very demanding in all the challenges, all the second balls. I think that part we did well, but we didn't do the different ways we try to attack, to create chances.

“In the beginning we created a clear chance with Gerard, in the first half with (Ken) Sema and with Troy we created two or three more chances but it wasn't enough to score. It was an equal game, very close, we got a point and we continue."
