Shane Duffy nets Premier League goal for Brighton against Watford

Shane Duffy has continued his career renaissance as he scored for Brighton against Watford.

Duffy has found himself back with the Seagulls after a disastrous loan spell at Celtic last season.

And with Ben White gone to Arsenal for £50m it created an opening for Duffy to return to the starting line up.

And the Republic of Ireland international scored to open Brighton's scoring with a trademark header in the 10th minute.

Duffy has been in fine form to start the season and was given the Man of the Match award in their 2-1 win over Burnley.

And the timing of Duffy's run in form is just right as Stephen Kenny is set to announce his squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers next month as they will travel to Portugal.
