Watch Watford star Ismaila Sarr score wonder goal from inside OWN HALF but then miss penalty in 1-1 draw with West Brom

ISMAILA SARR managed to score from 50 yards but then blew it from 12 as Watford drew at West Brom.

The winger was in action for the Hornets tonight at their fellow promotion hopefuls but managed to go from hero to zero.

It only took 12 minutes for the 24-year-old to produce a moment of magic.

With the score still goalless, Sarr received the ball around five yards inside his own half with his back to goal.

He found himself under no pressure from West Brom, which allowed him to turn and spot Baggies stopper David Button off his line.

Without a moment of hesitation, Sarr instantly decided to pull the trigger, despite still being inside his own half, and watched on as it sailed towards goal.

Button attempted to scramble back, but he was too far out, and he could do nothing as the ball floated over his head and into the net as Sarr raced off celebrating.

Former Watford midfielder David Payne told on : “What a goal, what a finish. That is some goal.

“Watford have been under severe pressure, but the ball drops middle of pitch and Ismaila Sarr does that. David Button has to look at his positioning.

“Sarr delivers a powerful chip - I don't even know how you describe it.”

While another fan tweeted: "Ismalia Sarr with the goal of the season already."

As another commented: "Oh wow! Sarr has just scored a ridiculous goal for Watford."

It sparked memories of David Beckham’s iconic half-way line goal for Manchester United against Wimbledon.

That memorable moment came on the opening day of the 1996/97 Premier League season.

However, Grady Diangana equalised for the Baggies on the stroke of half time with the hosts going on to dominate most of the second period.

Then another big moment arrived for Sarr to win it when the Hornets were awarded a penalty with just 17 minutes remaining after a foul on the attacker.

Sarr took it himself, but 12 yards proved to be too close for him as Button gained redemption and saved it to earn his team a point.
