Walter Mazzarri: Dishes out the orders

Watford manager Walter Mazzarri has thank the Hornets fans for the part they played in helping them beat Everton at Vicarage Road.

The hosts came from a goal behind to beat the Toffees 3-2 and give them their sixth win of the Premier League campaign.

“I am really happy. Even though they managed to score with their first chance, we showed character to beat a very good team,” Mazzarri told Sky Sports.

“I also want to thank the fans because they were incredible. When we were losing, they were still chanting for us.

Stefano Okaka scored his first goals for Watford with an impressive brace, and Mazzarri hailed his impact after a lengthy wait.

Mazzarri added: “Okaka had to wait mainly because of injury but he has shown how important he is for the team.”
