Nigel Pearson praises Watford's display

Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson praises Watford's display after the Foxes salvage a 2-2 draw in today's Championship clash at the King Power Stadium.

Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson has praised Watford's display in today's 2-2 draw at the King Power Stadium.

The Hornets led 2-1 against the league leaders going into injury time, but Danny Drinkwater's last-minute strike salvaged a point for the Foxes.

Pearson told reporters after the game: "We deserved to get something out of the game. It's always difficult when you go two goals down, we're disappointed with the fashion we conceded the goals and you've got to give Watford credit.

"I thought their game plan was thorough, they defended very, very deeply and tried to limit the opportunities for us to cause them problems.

"But, all in all, I'm not sure anyone could argue we didn't deserve to get something out of the game because I think we dominated the vast majority of it."

Leicester are currently 11 points clear of second-placed Burnley at the top of the Championship.
