Wolves pulled themselves out of the relegation zone in spectacular fashion over the weekend with a commanding 4-1 victory against Fulham.
Following their earlier win against Southampton, Wanderers continued their winning streak with a phenomenal performance at Craven Cottage, led by the exceptional Matheus Cunha.
Cunha played a crucial role in the game, equalizing for Wolves, assisting Joao Gomes, and scoring a remarkable second goal. Goncalo Guedes sealed the victory with a fourth goal in injury time.
The win was particularly significant for Wolves as Fulham had been performing strongly this season and even took the lead in the match through Alex Iwobi.
Noticing a change in Gary O’Neil, both Alan Shearer and Gary Lineker praised the manager for reinvigorating the team.
The unexpected victory at Craven Cottage showcased one of Wolves’ most impressive performances under O’Neil, especially as key players like Santiago Bueno and Craig Dawson were unavailable. Mario Lemina stepped up admirably in their absence, showcasing the team’s depth and resilience.
Cunha’s standout performance earned him recognition as one of the top players of the season so far by Shearer. Both pundits expressed confidence in Wolves’ future success if the team can maintain their current form.
The win over Fulham was a morale boost for O’Neil and the team, potentially setting the stage for a positive turnaround in their season. With upcoming favorable fixtures in the Premier League, Wolves now have an opportunity to build on this momentum and climb up the table.
