NEWCASTLE, England :Newcastle United had to settle for a 1-1 draw against Watford after Joao Pedro struck a late equaliser for the visitors in their Premier League clash at St James' Park on Saturday, ensuring the home side remain in the relegation zone.
With new striker Chris Wood making his debut, Newcastle started positively as midfielder Joelinton fired a volley off the bar and sent another just wide in the opening 20 minutes. Watford turned up the pressure after the goal and Joshua King and Moussa Sissoko missed excellent chances as Newcastle appeared to be trying to protect their lead rather than making the most of their dominance in possession.
Joao Pedro outmuscled the Newcastle defence to brilliantly head home Kiko's cross in the 88th minute and snatch a share of the spoils as the Newcastle players looked on in despair.
