Adrian Segecic has made sure Watford's dismal away form in the English Championship continued as his 79th-minute equaliser handed Portsmouth a 2-2 draw at Fratton Park.

The Hornets looked to be ending their nine-match winless streak on the road after Rocco Vata had turned around Yang Min-hyeok's early strike with a goal and an assist for Imran Louza after halftime.

But former Sydney FC striker Segecic jumped off the bench to slam past Egil Selvik at his near post to share the points and keep some pressure on Watford manager Paulo Pezzolano.

"It is crucial that we have the firepower to come off the bench," Pompey boss John Mousinho said.

"It is encouraging to see Adrian come off the bench and get his goal."

Watford's wait for an away triumph has now been extended to 229 days.
