Sarr fires Watford back to Premier League while Bolasie continues scoring run for Middlesbrough

Ismaila Sarr scored the only goal that fired William Troost-Ekong's Watford back to the Premier League after a 1-0 victory over Millwall.

The Senegal winger won a penalty for Xisco Munoz's side in the opening minutes of Saturday’s Championship encounter after he was brought down, and he immediately stepped forward to break the deadlock at Vicarage Road in the 11th minute.

The goal separated both teams for the entire 90 minutes and sealed Watford's promotion to the Premier League in second spot.
