Wolves: Fans react as Raul Jimenez puts club ahead in Europa Leauge
Many Wolves fans couldn’t hide their delight after Mexican forward Raul Jimenez scored a penalty to put Wolves into the qualification spots of group K.
Wolves managed to win away Slovakia as they beat then-tabe toppers Slovan Bratislava in a tense affair.
The English side fell behind thanks to a deflected goal from Andraz Sporar as Slovan went into the break as 1-0 leaders.
An inspired second-half performance from Wolves saw them score twice in five minutes as they equalised through Moroccan midfielder Romain Saiss. Jimenez then won a penalty in the 63rd minute and he converted it himself to put Wolves in the ascendency.
The visitors managed to hold on for all three points, despite an 87th-minute red card from Jota which led to a nervy finish.
Wolves have now won back-to-back away games in the Europa League after they beat Besiktas in round 2, and are now in the top two heading into the final three games.
Here are some of the responses from Wolves fans…
