Watford had kicked off and passed the ball back to Craig Cathcart at Vicarage Road. But he dallied and Long blocked his clearance before racing through and dinking over Ben Foster. It was the quickest ever goal in Premier League history, with the Premier League timing it at 7.69 seconds. Long’s strike beats Ledley King’s effort for Tottenham against Bradford in 2000, when he netted after 9.82 seconds.
