Adam Murray earns the Rams reserves a share of the points at Vicarage Road

Derby County reserves came away from Vicarage Road with a point to stay top of the Barclaycard Premiership reserve league.

The Rams went a goal down in the opening five minutes to a Watford side that started tonight’s game in 5^th place but a superb shot from Barry Molloy brought the Rams level after just 12 minutes.

A goal for either side before the break saw the score tied at 2-2 at the break. Adam Murray the Rams goal scorer.

Both sides had chances during the second half but there was no further score. A good sign for the Rams was the appearance of Danny Higginbotham from off of the sub’s bench on the hour mark. Higginbotham taking the place of Steve Elliott and is now expected to be in the Rams side to play Stoke at the weekend if there is no reaction.
