Watford head coach Ed Still said his team are starting to believe in each other after the win at Bristol City.
Still told BBC Three Counties Radio: "The most important beyond anything else this evening was the energy the players could find and the heart they could put into it. Everybody saw the commitment that has gone into that performance.
"We forced a little bit of luck - when you create a wonder goal like that it doesn't just fall from the sky and we've got a bit lucky at the end as well, they've had a couple of chances where on another day that could be a draw.
"We're not getting ahead of ourselves but it does feel special.
"I'm so pleased and proud of the dressing room and for the team because they're coming together and they are starting to believe in each other and hopefully the fans can feel that and feed off that."
