Wolverhampton Wanderers have enjoyed a successful campaign in the Premier League after winning the Championship title last season.
Wolves fans on Twitter have hit back at Troy Deeney after he branded Raul Jiminez a ‘loser’ for wearing a mask during his side’s dramatic 3-2 FA semi-final defeat on Sunday.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side were winning the contest 2-0 before the Hornets staged a remarkable fightback to send the game into extra-time, with Deeney netting a stoppage-time penalty.
Former Barcelona forward Gerard Deulofeu, who came off the bench, started the fightback and ended up scoring the winning goal in extra-time.
Striker Jimenez scored one of his sides goals and during his celebration, he opted to wear a wrestling mask. After the game, Deeney mocked him for his celebrations and stated that he is now the ‘loser’, as quoted by the Evening Standard.
But Wolves fans on Twitter hit back at Deeney for what he said on Sunday by stating that he lacks ‘any class’ and he has now motivated the team for their Premier League clash later this month.
Here is a selection of Wolves fans on Twitter making their feelings about Deeney pretty clear:
Both Watford and Wolves will now turn their attention to Premier League matters and aiming to finish what has been a successful campaign in the top seven.
There is no doubt that Javi Gracia’s side will have one eye on facing Manchester City at Wembley, but they will also be aware that they will have to face Wolves again at the end of the month in what will now be a fiery encounter.
