Watford manager Aidy Boothroyd defended keeper Ben Foster after his mistake:
"It was an individual error from Ben, but he has been magnificent for us this season, and earned us many points.
Manchester City manager Stuart Pearce:
"The game had an end-of-season feel to it, and both sides lacked a bit of energy.
"Once we had got our noses in front, I could not see them scoring so I am disappointed we did not hang on.
"We know where we need to strengthen and I hope we will do in the summer - we need to add more goals to the team."
