Jubilant scenes after the final whistle in front of the South Bank. First Edwards does his triple fist pump, the Joao Gomes shoves first Andre and then Rodrigo Gomes over to the fans to do the same. Then Santi Bueno does one before handing his shirt to a young fan. #WWFC

FULL TIME
WOLVES 2-1 LIVERPOOL
Yes, it was a smash-and-grab when you look at the fact Wolves scored twice from four shots, but their organisation and discipline was superb. Two wins in five days. #WWFC

Alisson's poor kick is intercepted, Andre advances, Liverpool back off and his shot takes a massive deflection off Gomez and loops in. #WWFC

GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL. Andre. 2-1 Wolves. #WWFC

That's a horrible error from Sa. Salah is one-on-one with Krejci and takes on a shot early with the outside of his left foot. Sa gets a hand to it and should keep it out but doesn't. #WWFC

GOAL. Salah. 1-1. #WWFC

Long ball forward and Arokodare gets the better of Van Dijk in a scrappy tussle before laying off to Rodrigo Gomes. He then simply beats Konate for directness. First touch takes him away from the defender, second chips a shot over Alisson. Wolves' first shot of the game. #WWFC

GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLL. Rodrigo Gomes. #WWFC

Joe Gomez on for Liverpool to face Joao Gomes and Rodrigo Gomes, which is all the tenuous excuse in need to share this silliness again! @theathleticfc.bsky.social #WWFC

Rodrigo Gomes on for Mane. #WWFC

Triple change for Wolves.
Mosquera, Bellegade and Arokodare on.
Doherty, Angel Gomes and Armstrong off.
#WWFC

Mad scramble in the Wolves goalmouth ends with the ball striking Jones's shoulder and bouncing up onto the bar. Bit of a let-off, that. #WWFC

Second half underway. Jones on for Gravenberch, who was on a booking from the first half. #WWFC

HALF-TIME
WOLVES 0-0 LIVERPOOL
Strange game. It's lacked intensity and major goalmouth incident and yet has managed to be quite absorbing. Liverpool haven't fully got going, but much of that is down to Wolves, who have stuck to their gameplan, stopped them playing, and looked OK on the ball. #WWFC

Applause all round the ground on 18 minutes on memory of Diogo Jota - adored by both sets of fans. #WWFC

Decent start by Wolves. Couple of crossing chances for Tchatchoua, which haven't worked out. But there was also a scare when Doherty gifted possession to Ekiteke with Frimpong eventually firing over. #WWFC

Underway. Wolves starting with a midfield diamond in front of their back 5. Andre at the base, Mane to his right, Joao Gomes to his left, Angel Gomes the most advanced. #WWFC

Kick-off a few minutes away at a Molineux where, despite the pre-match light show, this game very much as an after-the-lord-mayor's show/before-the-next-lord-mayor's-show feel to it. Four changes for Wolves. Krejci, Doherty, A Gomes, Wolfe in; Mosquera, Toti, Bellegarde, H Bueno out. #WWFC

Yes

Welcome to Wolves, home of Gomes, Gomes, Gomes and Gomes

Wolves now have the greatest concentration of Gomeses outside the Portuguese-speaking world.*

It’s a Premier League record. So we’ve written a piece about names.

It made me smile! Enjoy

Wolverhampton Wanderers. Victory. Joy

Nothing short of lifting the FA Cup Will alter the fact this season has been utterly miserable for Wolves. So all the more reason to enjoy moments of jubilation like last night. Rob Edwards certainly did. #WWFC @theathleticfc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/707...

You could tell what that win meant to Rob Edwards. Sometimes fist-pumps to the fans after the game can look staged, but his in front of the South Bank tonight looked like a huge outpouring of raw emotion. Well-deserved win for Wolves. #WWFC

FULL TIME
WOLVES 2-0 VILLA
Wolves have won. Big win for Rob Edwards, who sprinted down the touchline when Rodrigo netted that second on the break. Wolves go past Derby's 11-point Premier League record-low tally. #WWFC

GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAL. Rodrigo Gomes. 2-0 Wolves. #WWFC

Rodrigo Gomes on for Adam Armstrong, which means Wolves now have all 4 Gomeses on the pitch together! #WWFC

7 minutes of added time signalled by the officials. Emery going berserk at the 4th official but that feels to me like the most it should be. #WWFC

Andre coming off for Wolves after being down for treatment. Angel Gomes on. #WWFC

Wolves sub: Arokodare on for Bellegarde. #WWFC

Ball fizzed into the box by Tchatchoua to Armstrong, who lays it off to Joao Gomes (I'll give Armstrong the benefit of the doubt and say he meant it). Gomes hits it firmly with his right foot, it skims the under-side of the bar and goes in in front of the South Bank, which goes wild. #WWFC

GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLL. Joao Gomes. 1-0 Wolves. #WWFC
