WATFORD, England (Reuters) - Brentford defender Pontus Jansson scored in added time as they secured a 2-1 Premier League victory over Watford at Vicarage Road on Saturday for their third straight win that piled the pressure on their relegation-threatened hosts.

Jansson powerfully headed in the 95th-minute winner from Christian Eriksen's free kick, shortly after Watford's Joshua King hit the post and Imran Louza fired the rebound wide from point-blank range, to spark wild celebrations among away fans.
