LONDON (Reuters) - Manchester United went top of the Premier League, at least until the day's later matches, when they won 2-1 at Watford on Saturday after the hosts' Troy Deeney equalised with a penalty and then scored an own goal in the dying minutes.

United looked set to win 1-0 after Dutchman Memphis Depay put them ahead in the 11th minute, a lead they held until Deeney equalised by blasting his penalty past United keeper David De Gea in the 87th after substitute Marcos Rojo brought down Odion Ighalo.
