Review
From The Watford FC Archive: Owing to rain and bad light, the match was abandoned after 143 minutes, which included 20 minutes of regular extra time and a further 33 minutes played in the hope of securing a decisive result on aggregate and averting the need for a replay.
Seeing as the game went the full distance (and then some more) this wasn't technically an abandoned game though, so it's treated as a Draw in our database.
