Ireland's Collins a happy Hatter as Luton edge  Watford

The result dealt Watford's automatic promotion hopes a blow, but Swansea and Brentford could only draw in the chase to win promotion behind Norwich.

ON TARGET: Luton's James Collins scores the winner from the spot at Kenilworth Road.

IRELAND's James Collins came off the bench for Luton Town to score with his first touch as the Hatters beat arch-rivals Watford at Kenilworth Road for the first time since 1993.

The Hatters, who were the better side for long periods, were awarded a penalty with 18 minutes to go, as Collins came off the bench to send keeper Daniel Bachmann the wrong way and net the only goal of the game.
