MATT DOHERTY NOTCHED his seventh goal in all competitions on Sunday afternoon, however his strike proved in vain as Wolves suffered a dramatic 3-2 defeat in their FA Cup semi-final against Watford.
The Dubliner popped up at the back post to get his head on the end of Jonny’s curled delivery, notching a precise low effort beyond the reach of Hornets goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes to make it 1-0.
Nuno Espírito Santo’s men doubled their advantage after 63 minutes with a goal from Mexican striker Raúl Jiménez, however Wolves would suffer a late capitulation.
Second-half introduction Gerard Deulofeu entered off the bench to halve the deficit.
Troy Deeney levelled the sides with a 94th minute penalty, before Deulofeu struck again in the first half of extra-time to secure a 3-2 win.
