Kayembe: 'I'm just happy to give a win to my team'

Watford midfielder Edo Kayembe admitted he had surprised himself with a rare headed goal which sealed a 3-2 win against Derby County at Pride Park.
The DR Congo international also converted a penalty as the Hornets came from 2-0 down to extend their unbeaten run to four games.
"It was a good goal because it was my first time to score with a header," Kayembe told BBC Three Counties Radio.
"It was a good feeling. Zigor (Aranalde), our assistant head coach, told me in training to go to attack this area. It was a good delivery from Imran (Louza) and I'm just happy to score and change the game."
Team-mate Louza scored from the spot during last month's game against Coventry but was willing to step aside to allow Kayembe to put Watford back on level terms with just five minutes to go.
"Normally he takes them if I'm not on the pitch. But we decided before the game that if we had a penalty I was going to take it and if I score and we had another one, I was going to take that as well," Kayembe said.
Watford are 11th in the Championship going into Tuesday's home fixture against Preston North End.
