Lewis Dunk's goal eases the pressure on Brighton & Hove Albion manager Sami Hyypia as his side earn a point against Watford.

Brighton & Hove Albion's winless streak extended to seven games as they played out a 1-1 draw against Watford this afternoon.

The game's first real chance fell to Brighton striker Chris O'Grady, who did well to burst into the box, but his shot from a tight angle was too close to Watford keeper Heurelho Gomes.

Joao Carlos Teixeira then rose highest to meet a cross from the left, but he couldn't generate enough power to direct his header goalwards.

Watford almost went in front when Gianni Munari looped a header towards goal, but Brighton keeper David Stockdale was there to gratefully clutch the ball to his chest.

The Hornets went in front soon after the restart when Daniel Tozser's low free kick was allowed to go through Brighton's wall and into the net.

Rohan Ince looked to be the man guilty of creating the gap in what was a fatal error for the visitors.

Their response came in the form of substitute Kazenga LuaLua, who beat his man with a step-over before his low cross was almost turned into his own net by Joel Ekstrand.

Brighton eventually equalised through centre-back Dunk as he flicked a corner into the net for his fourth goal of the season.

Matej Vydra had a late chance to win it for Watford, but Stockdale was equal to his effort and parried away to make sure his team got a point.
