NEIL HARRIS hailed the spirit of his Cardiff squad after they recorded a third straight victory, beating a Watford side previously undefeated at Vicarage Road thanks to Keiffer Moore’s goal.
“We’ve come to Watford, with the players they’ve got, the changes they can make and the different shapes they can play, so it’s a big result and probably the most enjoyable since I’ve been in charge,” said Harris.
He singled out Moore, the 6ft 5in striker, who was dominant in both penalty areas and also fastest to react when Watford failed to clear a corner, hooking the ball past the unsighted Ben Foster into the bottom corner.
“Kieffer is not just about goals – I hope he scores 20 or 30 this season, but he’s not a typical 20 or 30 goals-a-season man, although he’s lethal at the moment.
“We’ve had a lot of words with him on the training pitch and in the office with the laptop about his positional play, second balls and balls around the box. At the moment, the ball is finding him as well as him finding the ball.”
