Unseen hero keeps Wrexham level against Watford | OneFootball

Anthony Patterson set the tone in the fourth minute with a sharp low save and, with five stops overall, secured Wrexham a 1-1 draw against Watford.

The goalkeeper's first intervention came as he parried Amin Nabizada's right-footed drive low to his left, a springboard for a busy afternoon.

He was beaten by a close-range header (14.). Patterson reset smartly, tipping away Matthew Pollock's header (30.). He then pushed Jordan Zemura's rising strike over in the second minute of first half stoppage time.

After the restart he got down to Iker Bravo Solanilla's skidding effort from range (48.). He preserved parity again by clawing out Martín Payero's long-range hit towards the top corner (67.).

Patterson finished with five saves and one high claim, the difference as the Hornets produced six shots on target from 10 attempts. His positioning and handling steadied Wrexham whenever the Hornets broke through.
