Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Gary O'Neil is hopeful the injury sustained by Pedro Neto against Newcastle United is not a serious one.
Neto was taken off on a stretcher during Saturday's 2-2 draw after pulling up just before he was about to shoot following a dribble.

"He's moving around in there [the dressing room]. Hamstring injuries have very different levels of severity so we're hoping it's on the smaller side," O'Neil revealed in his post-match press conference.
"Hodgey [Joe Hodge] had a similar one in the cup game and wasn't out too long so we're hopeful Pedro won't be missing for long.
"It's more devastating for Pedro because he's been in such a fantastic spot and works his socks off and deserves all the plaudits he's been getting. My thoughts are more for him, getting him back as soon as possible and showing the world what he can do again."
Neto has been in fantastic form this season, producing his league-leading seventh assist of 2023/24 against Newcastle to help Wolves extend their unbeaten run to five matches.
But O'Neil says even without their star winger, his side can cope.
"He's been a big part of what we've managed to do so far but however long he's out for, the group are ready to make sure we keep producing performances.
"[Jean-Ricner] Bellegarde was back on the grass today. He was close today. Hopefully he can be involved at Sheffield United. We'll find a way."
