‘I see relegation calling’: Gary Lineker delivers shocking relegation battle verdict after seeing Wolves draw 1-1 with Everton

Wolves managed to secure a valuable point against Everton on Saturday evening after holding one of the league’s most in-form teams to a 1-1 draw at Molineux. The match started with Jack Harrison giving Everton the lead through a deflected strike that goalkeeper Jose Sa had no chance of saving. It was a sloppy defensive display from Wolves that allowed Everton to apply pressure, with manager Pereira likely disappointed to see the ball sneak into the far corner.

However, Wolves responded admirably despite the absence of key player Matheus Cunha. Substitute Jean-Ricner Bellegarde made an immediate impact by providing a brilliant pass for Marshall Munetsi to score his first goal for Wolves. Unfortunately, Munetsi’s night was cut short due to injury, adding more concern to Wolves’ already depleted squad.

Following the game, both Joe Cole and Gary Lineker expressed confidence in Wolves’ ability to avoid relegation, with Lineker noting the growing gap between Wolves and the bottom three. With Everton in good form under the management of David Moyes, a draw was a respectable outcome for Wolves, especially without Cunha available.

As the relegation battle intensifies, Wolves must now shift their focus to the upcoming match against struggling Southampton. Leicester’s clash against Chelsea could potentially impact the relegation battle, but Wolves have the opportunity to control their fate by securing a crucial victory against Southampton. Failure to do so could have significant consequences, making it imperative for Wolves to maintain their focus and determination in the matches ahead to ensure their Premier League survival.
