EDWARDS CHOKED BY DERBY HEROICS

ROB Edwards was overcome with emotion after his Luton side won the bragging rights with a derby day victory over his former side Watford.

Gabe Osho opened the scoring in the first half, before Allan Campbell prodded home from close range in stoppage time at a buoyant Kenilworth Road.

Edwards, who was in charge at Vicarage Road earlier in the campaign, said: “It meant a lot to us, I think the players showed that in their performance, so all round a really, really good day.

“The players were outstanding, every single one of them, to the point where it actually made me emotional at the end.

“The running they showed, the intent that they showed, right to the end they were outstanding.

“They had a big threat with their individuals, but even when Ismaila (Sarr) comes on, we dealt with it very, very well.”
