Watford striker Andre Gray has dedicated his goal in victory over Leicester City to his late aunt.

Gray came off the bench to snatch a late victory for the Hornets and after the game he explained that his celebrations were in part motivated by the emotions he felt following a tough couple of weeks.

"There was just a massive mix of emotions, I've had a tough couple of weeks," he told the Watford Observer.

"I lost my auntie. It was about two weeks ago now, so it's been difficult.

"It was unexpected, so it was tough. She always used to come to the home games – most of the time she didn't tell us, she got the tickets directly from the liaison so it was important to score at a home game and then do that one for her, so there's many different emotions in that win today."
