Watford   0 - 2   Scunthorpe

Scunthorpe 2-0 Watford

Watford 0-2 Scunthorpe

Scunthorpe picked up a second league win of the week to cause an upset as Watford's fine form came to an end.

A Michael O'Connor set-piece was only half cleared and Cliff Byrne drilled a low strike into the bottom corner.

Martyn Woolford was on hand to double the lead before the break, latching onto a poor clearance before lashing a left-footed strike into the net.

Stephen McGinn and Jordon Mutch both went close to pulling a goal back for the hosts but Scunthorpe held on.

Hornets centre-half Adrian Mariappa also had a great chance in the dying moments but saw his header clear the crossbar.
