Tom Dele-Bashiru scored from the penalty spot as Watford secured a 2-2 draw against Sunderland in the Championship. The Nigerian midfielder converted his chance in the 43rd minute to cancel out Luke O’Nien’s early header for the hosts at the Stadium of Light. Softfootball reports that he played the full ninety minutes.
Watford took the lead shortly after halftime through Imran Louza, but Sunderland fought back to snatch a point with a late goal from Dennis Cirkin in the 89th minute.
Dele-Bashiru’s contribution was vital in keeping the Hornets competitive during a tightly contested match that saw both teams share the spoils.
The 25-year-old has now netted three goals in fourteen league appearances this season, continuing to establish himself as a key figure in the midfield.
His consistent presence and ability to deliver in crucial moments remain important assets for Watford as they navigate the demanding Championship campaign.
