Marco Silva hails "amazing" Richarlison

Watford boss Marco Silva has branded Richarlison "an amazing talent" after the Brazilian came up with a late equaliser during Saturday's Premier League clash at West Bromwich Albion.

The Hornets found themselves two goals behind inside 21 minutes at The Hawthorns, but Abdoulaye Doucoure cut the score to 2-1 in the 37th minute, before Richarlison's last-gasp header saw the points shared.

The 20-year-old has now scored three Premier League goals following a summer move from Fluminense, and Silva has been quick to praise the Brazilian forward.

"Richarlison is an amazing talent. I told my board I want this player because I believe in him. We never know how he'll react coming from Brazil. Brazilian players can have problems in another country but he's been really good," Silva told reporters.

Richarlison signed a five-year contract with Watford upon his arrival at the start of August.
