Wolves were hoping to bounce back from their recent defeat to Manchester City as they faced Brighton in their penultimate home game of the season. However, things did not go as planned as they suffered a disappointing 2-0 loss.
The game got off to a bad start for Wolves when Mateus Cunha gave away a penalty in the first half, which was calmly dispatched by Danny Welbeck. The visitors then doubled their lead late on through Brajan Gruda, leaving Wolves with a mountain to climb.
Despite pushing till the very end, Wolves were unable to find a way past Brighton’s goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen. Fans were particularly frustrated with Marshall Munetsi’s performance, with many questioning his inclusion in the starting lineup for the second week in a row.
Munetsi’s performance against Brighton was heavily criticized, with fans pointing out his lack of quality and poor decision-making on the pitch. His stats from the game painted a grim picture, with just 54% of his passes finding their target and losing possession multiple times.
Overall, Wolves’ defeat to Brighton was a tough pill to swallow for fans, who are now concerned about the team’s prospects for the remainder of the season. Munetsi’s performance in particular has come under intense scrutiny, with many questioning Vitor Pereira’s decision to keep faith in the underperforming midfielder.
