Manuel Pellegrini insisted he felt his side were unlucky not to get at least a draw as West Ham lost 2-0 to Watford at the London Stadium.
The game began as an even affair with both sides having their fair share of possession, however it was the visitors who got a lucky break. Roberto Pereyra went through on goal but was brought down by Fabian Balbuena in the penalty area with referee Lee Mason awarding the penalty. Troy Deeney stepped up and thumped the ball into the top corner to give his side the lead.
West Ham responded well in the second half and had many chances to get back on level terms, however it just wasn't meant to be for the Hammers as Gerard Deulofeu made sure of the points for Watford as he rounded Lukasz Fabianski before slotting the ball into an empty net to make it 2-0.
