    But you can follow all the reaction to today’s games, including this one, over here.

    See you again soon.

    There's no winner. 

    But plenty of warm farewells for Flores from the Watford faithful instead as he applauds the fans. 

    For Big Sam, a very decent showing from a mix of fringe players and academy graduates. He's got a grin on.

    One last goal for Watford under Quique Sanchez Flores?

    A corner thrown in deep, Britos meets it unmarked and strongly but the ball was already out of play. Goal kick, and one minute to play of the four.

    Watford are too slow with it. A bit of space opens up for Lens on the Sunderland right but the home side win it back, swarming forward is Paredes but his cross is weak. 

    Straight at Jordan Pickford with Ighalo and Deeney queuing up!

    Odion Ighalo can win it with a shot on target here! He turns inside the box but snatches one wide of the Sunderland goal. He took an absolute age with it too. A corner, which is cleared. 

    Sam Allardyce is waving his men into the trench they've dug on the edge of their area.

    There's still time...

    Sunderland have been sitting deep, maybe that's why they've just given it away with a misplaced pass? 

    Not used to having much of the ball? Three minutes to go...

    Hmm. Something of that Watford buzz seems to have slipped slightly. 

    Adlene Guedioura breezes into the box with a wonderful little run but throws it all away with a wayward pass towards Ighalo. Or was the Nigerian striker just snoozing?

    A change in the Watford midfield now with Jurado off and Nordin Amrabat on to replace him.

    Just under 10 to go...

    It's a case of all hands to the pump for Sunderland right now. Duncan Watmore is still running gallantly up top (does he ever tire?) but the momentum's definitely with the home side. 

    Vicarage Road has been treated to a lot of Sunderland songs today but now the Hornets fans are in full voice.

    Just under 15 minutes for somebody to find a winner then. Watford have come from behind to win plenty of times before at Vicarage Road...

    Oooooh. A lot of noise from the home fans who think Kone brought down Troy Deeney clear on goal. 

    The challenge, outside the box, looked very clumsy indeed. For some reason Kone slowed down and let Deeney in when he had things under control, shepherding the ball back towards his keeper. 

    So was that a slip or a professional foul as the Watford man stole in? Referee Kevin Friend takes the lenient view.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 66 mins

    Almen Abdi's been busy, had a couple of good chances with which he should have done more, and now he's off. It's Mario Suarez in his place.

    Both these sides obviously very keen to provide some last day entertainment! How many more twists and turns will we have? 

    The home fans are bouncing now.

    Argh! Ben Watson and Adlene Guedioura get in the way of one another on the edge of the box! 

    The ball was sitting up beautifully to be hit, and in the end it was Guedioura who got their first, firing over the bar under pressure from his own player. Watson looked better placed.
