Super Eagles forward Isaac Success was an unused substitute as Watford booked a place in the semi-finals of the Emirates FA Cup following a 2-1 win against Crystal Palace at the Vicarage Road, reports Completesports.com.

Watford took advantage of their increasing first-half momentum to move ahead on the half-hour when Etienne Capoue was teed up by Craig Cathcart after Vincent Guiata missed a punch from a corner.

Michy Batshuayi levelled after half-time following a horrible mistake from Adrian Mariappa.

The tie looked to be heading to extra-time with clear chances at a premium late on until Andre Gray, who had been on the pitch barely 60 seconds, slotted in Roberto Pereyra’s perfect lob to seal their progression.

In stoppage time Aaron Wan-Bissaka had the chance to score the latest of undeserved equalising goals, but from just outside the area he shot narrowly wide.

For the first time since their promotion to the Premier League in 2015, Watford are on course to end the season with something to play for.

Success has made two appearances in the competition this season with a goal to his name.

He recently returned to action after spending spending time on the sidelines as a result of injury he picked up during a league game against Tottenham Hotspur early in the year.
