Troy Deeney was sensational at the Vitality

At the Vitality Stadium, Deeney scored his second goal of the game with a smart first-time finish.Hornets goalkeeper Ben Foster denied Dan Gosling but Nathan Ake was first to react to the rebound and headed home.Ake’s goal was quickly followed by a Bournemouth leveller as Ryan Fraser’s free-kick was headed in by striker Callum Wilson – his first goal in six matches.Watford were back in front from their next attack as Sema lashed in a volley from distance but 60 seconds later the Cherries were level once again with Fraser converting at the end of a neat passing move – the fourth goal in six minutes.West Ham United 2-2 Brighton and Hove AlbionBrighton opened the scoring at West Ham after 56 minutes when Dale Stephens’ half-volley beat Lukasz Fabianski.The Seagulls doubled their advantage two minutes later when Shane Duffy volleyed in at the back post from a corner – his fourth goal of the campaign.7
