Wolves striker Raul Jimenez will be feeling the pain more than most.

His goal put Wolves 2-0 and appeared to book their place in the FA Cup final, before Watford’s late comeback.

His celebration with a luchador mask will end up as a painful reminder of an agonising near miss, rather than the iconic moment he planned for.

Jimenez has had time to take in the disappointing loss, and has sent a message to try and gee up fans.

Jimenez signed a permanent deal at Wolves just last week and has quickly become a fan favourite at Molineux.

He is assuming a leadership role within the team and this should be seen as a good sign.

Wolves still will want to finish the season strongly and bounce back from the adversity of the galling semi-final defeat.

They are currently in seventh in the Premier League, a position they will look to maintain over the final few weeks of the campaign.
