If it was given as a foul, it must be a penalty & the goal must be disallowed because the foul happened before the ball crossed the line. Watford would be down to 10, but there’s always the chance the penalty is saved, or missed. So tough call, but better to let the goal stand.

Agree goal should stand, but I don't think there's anything in laws that says a foul should be discounted if a goal is scored.

Hmm... always thought the ‘last man’ rule was actually about being ‘denied a goal-scoring opportunity’ - which this clearly wasn’t, as he scored. If only the match had been on BTSport, we could have had Graham Poll there to sort it out - give everyone a red card
