Peter Ramage
Crystal Palace staged a brilliant second half recovery to come from two down to draw 2-2 at Watford.
Watford moved into a two-goal lead inside the opening 15 minutes and looked set for a comprehensive victory at Vicarage Road.
The first came from Swiss midfielder Almen Abdi who collected a poor clearance from Jazz Richards and he went past Kagisho Dikgacoi on the edge of the box before rifling a low shot into the net on six minutes.
Eight minutes later, the lead was doubled when Palace again failed to clear properly and Marco Cassetti's volley into the ground bounced up for Nathaniel Chalobah to head in at the far post.
Ian Holloway threw on Jon Williams for Alex Marrow for the second half and then Kevin Phillips for Yannick Bolasie on 54 minutes and the creativity of Williams helped swing the match in Palace's favour.
Palace grabbed a deserved equaliser on 66 minutes when Peter Ramage blasted home from two yards after Manuel Almunia failed to hold Damien Delaney's header.
And just four minutes later, Phillips converted a low cross on the right from Richards to complete a superb comeback.
