Ghanaian attacker Kwadwo Baah marked his Watford debut with a goal in their emphatic 5-0 victory over Milton Keynes Dons in the EFL Cup on Tuesday evening.

The 21-year-old came off the bench in the 62nd minute and swiftly made an impact, scoring just two minutes later.

Baah's right-footed shot from the left side of the box nestled in the bottom right corner, assisted by Yasser Larouci, to put Watford 3-0 up. Tom Ince scored a hat-trick, with goals in the 24th, 45+1st, and 74th minutes, while Mattie Pollock opened the scoring in the 24th minute.

Watford dominated the game, with more possession and shots than their opponents. The win was a reversal of fortune for the Hornets, who had lost their previous encounter with MK Dons.

Watford will now shift their focus to their upcoming Championship game against Stoke City on August 17th, hoping to carry their winning momentum into the league.
