West Ham looking to Antonio to spark them into life.
48'
Niang feeds Capoue 30 yards out. He fakes the shot but then runs into trouble. He should have had a go there.
47'
First half stats show that West Ham had the better of it after Watford made the fast start.

KICK OFF! Watford restart the contest.
End of 1st Half
45+11'
HT: Watford 1 West Ham 0. Deeney's early penalty separates the sides. Zarate earned the spot kick, but then saw his evening turn sour as he was carried off with what looks like a serious injury after more than eight minutes of treatment.
45+9'
Antonio catches Behrami with a high foot trying to block the clearance. Yellow card.

Both sets of fans applaud and sing Zarate's name. Sad to see a player go off like that after eight and a half minutes of treatment.
45+7'
WATFORD CHANGE: After lengthy treatment, the injured Zarate is stretchered off against his old club. He is replaced by Abdoulaye Doucouré.

Zarate being given oxygen. Looks like a serious injury to his knee.
45+3'
Zarate will go off. Play still halted.
45+2'
Bad news for Watford. Zarate is down again. It looks like his third appearance for the club is going to end prematurely.
45+1'
So close! Cresswell rampages down the left and drills in a low cross Gomes can only palm into the danger zone. It falls for Snodgrass six yards out, but his first touch is woeful. Watford recover and hack it away.
45'
Two minutes added.
43'
Holebas breaks free on the left. He has all day to pick out a cut back or have a shoot, but takes far too long and Fonte gets across to block.
42'
Antonio not the only one impressing for West Ham now. They've grown into the more likely side since that early surge from Watford.
41'
Antonio causing havoc on the right this time. He powers beyond three before seeing a shot from a narrow angle deflected for a corner.
39'
Bizarre stat...
38'
Lanzini steps up to take the free kick on the left... oh dear. That was so wasteful. He went for goal and blazed way over the top. The Hammers players in the box awaiting the cross aren't impressed.
37'
YELLOW CARD: Janmaat trips Antonio in full flow on the left wing.
