Odion Ighalo scored his 14th goal in the English Premier League on Monday to finish 2015 as the most prolific scorer in England with a total of 30 goals.
Ighalo showed sheer power and athleticism to draw Watford level in the 41st minute at home against Tottenham Hotspur.
The Nigeria international has now scored in six straight games and he is now just a goal shy of EPL leading scorers Jamie Vardy and Romelu Lukaku.
However, he was booked in the 65th minute for dissent in a game 10-man Watford lost 2-1.
Incidentally, Spurs striker Harry Kane was the second highest scorer in England for the outgoing year with 27 goals.
