Deulofeu inspired comeback as Watford reach FA Cup final

Former Barcelona forward Gerard Deulofeu stole the headlines with two goals in an exhilarating FA Cup semi-final, with Watford beating Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-2.

It was very much a split match at Wembley Stadium: one pre-Deulofeu and the other post-Deulofeu. This is because before the 66th minute, the Spaniard was not even on the pitch, having started as a substitute, and Wolves were 2-0 up.

Deulofeu scored his first quite soon after his coming on the pitch.

Once the mercurial Troy Deeney tied things up from the penalty spot right at the death, forcing the game into extra-time, Watford really started to believe and completed the stunning comeback through the 25-year-old with a typically composed finish.

Watford have booked their place in the FA Cup final and will play Manchester City at Wembley on May 18.
