Nigeria international and former Udinese defender, Troost Ekong played the whole game as his side Watford returned back to winning ways in their 2-0 home victory against Rotherham.
Displaying, albeit mainly in the first half, the much-needed energy and bite that was missing on Saturday, the Hornets got back on track with a merited win over Rotherham at a much happier Vicarage Road.
Christian Kabasele gave the team the early goal you always need against a lower-ranked team who set their stall out with plenty of men behind the ball and then Troy Deeney, having had a major hand in the first, scored the second around ten minutes later to drive home the advantage.
It was amazing what a difference a pair of early goals made. Sarr opened his legs for what felt like the first time in weeks; William Troost-Ekong strode out of the defence and played a slide-rule pass for Sarr, the sort Bobby Moore or Rio Ferdinand would have been proud of, and Chalobah won a thumping header in the shadow of the Graham Taylor Stand.
Ekong will be hoping to help his side as they travel to face Birmingham on Saturday, December 12.
