"In every game you want to show your intent from the first kick and put them under pressure," Long told the club's website after the match. "Mainly it's just to force that long ball so they're not quite set. Luckily I blocked it, it dropped nicely and I took a touch across Craig. "I know Ben from West Brom and he's an amazing keeper. He spreads himself so well and from watching clips I knew the dinked finish was my best option of scoring. Thankfully it came off. "Records like that are nice to have I suppose, but it's just disappointing that it wasn't a goal to get three points because I thought we deserved it. "Everybody put in such a shift all over the park. We had a few chances to get a second goal - I missed a couple, Redders (Nathan Redmond) hit the post twice, Bertie (Ryan Bertrand) hit the post as well. If one of those goes in, it gives us breathing space and we can see out the game. "But Watford are a good side - they are where they are in the league for a reason, so fair play to them for coming back."
