Wolves were level on 59 minutes when a through-ball from Morgan Gibbs-White, on his first PL start, found Raul Jimenez and he drilled a powerful shot between the legs of Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Four minutes later, Wolves were 2-1 ahead. Joao Moutinho played in Matt Doherty and he slid the ball across goal to leave Diogo Jota with a simple finish.
