Wolverhampton, coached by the Portuguese Bruno Lage, still cannot win in the English league after 4 rounds. The most Portuguese team in the tournament drew 1-1 on Sunday at home to Newcastle, conceding the win in the 90s.
With José Sa, Nelson Semedo, Ruben Neves, Matheus Nunez, João Moutinho, Pedro Neto and Gonçalo Guedes in the starting lineup, the Wolves came out with the will to win. After several chances, a goal was scored by one of the seven Portuguese players on the field: from outside the penalty area in the 38th minute, Ruben Neves scored a great goal. In the 81st minute, Raul Jimenez did not count the goal due to a foul by Pedro Neto at the beginning of the move.
That’s where the ghosts came from. Lage’s substitutions, including the addition of Podense, had little effect, and anxiety engulfed a team that had not won the English league since 2 April. In the 90s, Saint-Maximin even made a draw using an incomplete cut.
In the end, Lage gave a guarantee: “Ruben Neves will stay with 99% confidence.” The coach also said that the defender Boly was called and did not appear: “You are forcing something …”.
