Troy Deeney delivered an impeccable post-match interview after guiding his club to the FA Cup final.

The Watford skipper touched on a number of topics including his time in jail, his footballing upbringing not to mention mocking Raul Jimenez over his mask celebration.

"I was holding back the tears. 12 years ago I was paying £10 a week to play football and now I'm in the final," he said on beIN SPORTS.

Jimenez celebrated his goal by wearing a mask, and Deeney didn't hold back.

"I'm glad he put that mask on - he could wear it out now as well, now he's a loser. So, enjoy the mask - we got the victory," he added.

"He's a top, top player. It was a great finish, but I didn't see the mask thing. I'm quite happy I only saw it now because I probably would have lost my head if I saw that.

"I think you've got to wear the mask and do all that stuff when you know you're going to win the game."

The 30-year-old striker also gave a superb post-match interview to BT Sport on the pitch immediately after the game.

He not only demanded a new deal but also poked fun of Saturday's FA Cup semi-final between Manchester City vs. Brighton.

Watford, who are sitting 10th in the Premier League, now have a FA Cup final against Manchester City to look forward to, and they booked their spot in truly stunning fashion.

The 'Hornets' came from two goals down to seal a dramatic 3-2 victory against Wolves on Sunday.

Javi Gracia's team went behind in the first-half with Wolves' Mexican striker bagging his side's second. Gerard Deulofeu pulled one back before Deeney forced extra-time after converting a penalty deep, deep into stoppage time.

Deulofeu then scored in the 104th minute to complete a remarkable turnaround.
