An NFL star just reminded the soccer universe about such a game. Chad Johnson was a renowned NFL star during his prime, he played on the same team as Tom Brady for a season too.

Which soccer game did Chad Johnson remind us about?

The best part of this story is that this game isn’t even from the topmost flight of English soccer. Match highlights of such games are always doing rounds on social media. Soccer fans watch these clips and remember the good old days. Chad Johnson retweeted one such clip on his Twitter. The NFL star wrote, “I remember this game”, and added a ‘shocked’ face emoji.

Rolling back to 2013, Watford faced Leicester in the Championship playoff semi-final. The aggregate score between the two legs was tied at 2-2.  The clip was from the dying moments of that soccer match. The next scorer would most likely be the winner of the game. Leicester attacker, Anthony Knockaert earned a very controversial penalty during the final seconds of the match.

Every soccer fan thought that Leicester would snatch away the game in the most controversial manner. However, Watford’s goalkeeper, Manuel Almunia had other plans. Almunia saved the penalty and another rebound shot by Knockaert. A defender then launched a counterattack after clearing the ball away. Watford ran down the right wing with the ball before crossing it into the box. Hogg headed the ball down an incoming Troy Deeney’s path. Deeney smashes the ball into the back of the net. Watford ends up winning that historical game.
