Jermain Defoe came off the bench to rescue a stoppage-time point for Bournemouth in their mid-table Premier League clash at Watford. Roberto Pereyra's strike early in the second half looked as though it would be enough to secure victory for the Hornets but Defoe struck late on as Eddie Howe's side left Hertfordshire with a 2-2 draw. Pereyra put the hosts back in front soon after the interval only for Defoe to turn home Nathan Ake's flick-on in the dying embers. The Bournemouth striker had a marvellous chance to atone for his part in the Watford goal but was stopped by a fantastic Sebastian Prodl challenge after Adrian Mariappa had gifted possession to the Norway international. Bournemouth had no real reaction to the effort as Gracia's men looked to be seeing the game out with relative ease.
