Many Wolves fans gushed over Vitinha’s strike during his side’s FA Cup tie against Chorley on Friday evening.
The 20-year-old opened the scoring for the visitors on the night. With plenty of space to run into, Vitinha strolled into the opponents’ half and hit a sweet right-footed strike past the helpless Matthew Urwin – swerving and dipping from 35 yards out into the top corner.

Vitinha has been a bit-part player for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side this season, having started just twice in the Premier League and making eight appearances as a substitute (Whoscored).
But Friday’s game at The Chorley Group Victory Park Stadium was the perfect opportunity to show his manager why he deserves a run in the first-team, which he did perfectly.
