Puscas finds sting for Hornets

WATFORD’S unbeaten start to the league campaign came to an end as a George Puscas strike gave Reading the three points.

The visitors dominated much of the game, but Puscas pounced from close range four minutes before hal-time to protect the Royals’ 100 percent record in the Championship.

And that left Hornets boss Vladimir Ivic demanding improvements.

“We were better than Reading. They didn’t come into our box in the first 30 minutes,” he said.

“I was satisfied with the first 45 minutes. We were the team who were organised and dominant. We created a lot of space but the problem was that our final decisions were not good enough. This is something that we need to improve.
