Troy Deeney has mocked Raul Jimenez for his mask celebration during Wolves defeat to Watford in the FA Cup semi-final.

Jimenez scored in the second half to double Wolves lead and the Mexico striker celebrated by putting on a mask given to him by WWE wrestler Sin Cara.

But Watford responded by staging a surprise comeback at Wembley.

Gerard Deulofeu scored a brilliant effort with 11 minutes remaining to give Watford a lifeline before Deeney scored a penalty in the third minute of injury time to force extra time.

Deulofeu then scored his second of the game in extra time to book Watfords place against Manchester City in the FA Cup final on May 18.

Asked about Jimenezs celebration after the match, Deeney told beIN Sports: Do you know what, I genuinely didnt see that until now.

Theres a bit of me that wants to say something nasty but I wont.

Im glad he put that mask on, now he can wear it out now hes a loser.

So, yeah, enjoy the mask but we got the victory.
