Roberto Pereyra strikes as Watford stun Wolves with two goals in one minute

The Observer Premier League  Just when Wolves supporters thought this Premier League lark was easy. Two goals in 58 seconds during the first half, courtesy of Étienne Capoue’s long-distance effort and a deft finish from Roberto Pereyra, inflicted their first home defeat of the season to offer Nuno Espírito Santo’s side a timely reality check.  The Wolves manager had named an unchanged side in the league for the ninth match in a row – a run that had seen them go six matches unbeaten, conceding only six goals and picking up 15 points. Érik Lamela the star as Tottenham hold on for narrow win at West Ham Read more  By contrast, Watford seemed to have spiralled into the kind of form they usually reserve for the end of the season after winning their first four matches in such style: since beating Tottenham at the start of September, they had picked up only a solitary point.  There was no Troy Deeney, owing to a hamstring injury, meaning Javi Gracia handed opportunities to Gerard Deulofeu and Isaac Success in attack, while the Italian Adam Masina made his first league start at left-back.  It all pointed to another home victory for a team who have been described as the best promoted side in Premier League history by Jamie Redknapp, but, in Pereyra and Abdoulaye Doucouré, Watford have players who would grace almost any team in the division.  Pereyra was the catalyst for the opening goal, with his pass to Doucouré then setting up Capoue for a daisy-cutter from 30 yards that deceived Rui Patrício after squeezing through the legs of Conor Coady. Wolves barely had time to react before it was 2-0. The dominant Doucouré won the ball back and was on hand to deliver another assist as Pereyra guided a sublime finish past Patrício with the outside of his left foot for his fourth of the season.  “For me it was the key to the game,” said a delighted Gracia. “To score again so quickly gave us the chance to get a deserved victory. I’m very pleased for my players and the supporters. We had two tough weeks preparing and we had a good reward.”  It could have been even worse before the break for Wolves had Lee Mason decided Isaac Success had been brought down inside the box in a marginal decision but, to Espírito Santo’s relief, the referee signalled for a free-kick.  The hosts continued to stick to the principles that have brought such rewards so far yet they barely troubled Ben Foster in the Watford goal, as Doucouré and Capoue controlled midfield. Manchester City hammer Burnley with Leroy Sané adding the finishing touch Read more  They simply had to improve, and the introduction of Rúben Vinagre as a second-half substitute saw Foster at last called into action to palm away a dangerous cross. For obvious reasons given his West Brom associations, the goalkeeper was a target for Wolves fans but he had to be alert to deny Willy Boly’s attempted backheel on the hour mark. After that, he was rarely troubled.  A lightning break instigated by Pererya then almost
