Wolves make decision on Raul Jimenez mask celebration

Wolves have no problem with Raul Jimenez continuing his mask celebration.

The Mirror says Mexican striker Jimenez donned a mask given to him by WWE wrestler Sin Cara after putting Wolves 2-0 up at Wembley against Watford last weekend in their FA Cup semi-final.

It was a memorable way for the on-loan frontman to celebrate his 16th goal and his first since the club agreed a £30million club-record deal with Benfica for this summer.

But the Hornets hit back with two goals in the last 11 minutes to take the tie to extra-time before triumphing 3-2.

It prompted Watford striker Troy Deeney to ridicule Jimenez as a “loser" and Hornets legend Luther Blissett slammed the striker's actions as "disrespectful".
