Watford’s Premier League season concluded with a draw against Sunderland at Vicarage Road on Sunday.
Quique Sanchez Flores’ final match as Watford boss ended in a two-two draw with Sunderland as the Hornets twice came from behind to claim a point.
Sunderland went ahead just ahead of the half time break when Jack Rodwell finished off a Jermain Lens cross but Sebastian Prodl headed Watford level shortly after the break.
Lens restored Sunderland’s lead a few minutes later before Troy Deeney made sure of a point just past the hour when scoring from the penalty spot, with Watford also having two-goals disallowed.
Flores’ departure, after a 13th place Premier League finish (and an FA Cup semi-final) wasn’t enough to keep him in charge with a seventh boss in four-years now sought!

European finishes needed clarification on the final day but everything else was sorted.
Manchester City’s (one-one) draw at Swansea saw confirmed them as qualifying for the Champions League despite the Manchester United match with Bournemouth being abandoned due to a ‘suspect package’ being found.
This will be played on Tuesday, not that it’ll make a difference.
Arsenal’s (four-nil) win over Aston Villa saw them secure a runners up spot behind Champions Leicester (one-one) who ended up with a draw at Chelsea, with the Gunners ending second due to Tottenham (five-one) being thrashing at already relegated Newcastle.
Europa League football will come to Southampton (four-one) next season with a win over Crystal Palace booking that, which wasn’t the best of preparation for Palace’s FA Cup final meeting with Man United.
