Watford 3-2 Cardiff
That's all from me today, thanks for joining. That was an entertaining one.
Once I've rewritten the top of my report, you'll be able to read it here.
Enjoy your Saturday evening!
Watford 3-2 Cardiff
Javi Gracia will be delighted his side could hold on for three points there but my word was it nerve-wracking in those final few minutes.
That's Watford's first win since October.

Everybody breathe.
A much better second half for Cardiff but the damage was done early on.
Watford 3-2 Cardiff
Cardiff are really pushing for that equaliser but Watford are able to hold them off at the moment.
It's getting a bit feisty out there as the pressure ramps up with just two minutes to go.

Five minutes of added time.

Watford 3-2 Cardiff
Cardiff fans, you have SO much to thank Neil Etheridge for today.
Despite the score, he has produced some unbelievable saves and he's just been forced into another, tipping a Doucoure effort over the bar. That could have been game over.
Watford 3-2 Cardiff
Five minutes, plus extra time, to go at Vicarage Road and the travelling fans have found their voices for the the first time this afternoon.
Cardiff are FINALLY up for this. Can Watford hold on?

Well this just got exciting.

Bobby Reid
Oh my word. Comeback on?
There is a scramble in the box and the ball finds Bobby Reid who slots it home. Watford are furious with themselves.
Nine minutes to find an equaliser...

Cardiff have a goal.
Probably a mere consolation at this point but Junior Hoilett will be pleased with that one. Out on the left, he brings it onto his right foot and curls it past Ben Foster from outside the box.
We haven't seen an even remotely average goal here today.
Watford 3-0 Cardiff
Cardiff make a change too.
Bobby Reid comes on, replacing Aron Gunnarsson.

As Neil Etheridge receives treatment after being hit in a painful place by a Watford boot, Isaac Success comes on in place of Ken Sema.

Garth Crooks
BBC Sport football expert on Final Score
You have to go back a long time to see the type of football Watford are playing at Vicarage Road today.
They have played some lovely football and the goals have been exquisite. I cannot work out what Cardiff could have done to stop any of them.
Watford 3-0 Cardiff
As I typed that, Cardiff did have a chance to pull a goal back but Junior Hoilett's header drifted high over the bar.
Watford 3-0 Cardiff
Etheridge with a brilliant save AGAIN. And it's from Pereyra AGAIN.
The ball bounces around and it heads towards goal off Pereyra's shin and Etheridge has to react quickly.
I dread to think what the score would have been here if Etheridge wasn't between the Cardiff sticks.

A very special moment for Quina and he looks absolutely over the moon.
This is surely game over for Cardiff now. They look utterly deflated.

It's three for Watford and this time Domingos Quina is the man getting his name on the scoresheet.
That's his first Premier League goal in what is only his second Premier League start.
He picks his spot from outside the box after a lay off from Ken Sema and Etheridge has no chance.

They're both good to go on.

Watford goalscorer Jose Holebas is down holding his left leg, and Domingos Quina is also limping after a poor challenge from Mendez-Laing.
Holebas chased after the loose ball following that challenge but pulls up in pain.
