Up to fifth place for these fighting Wolves after a valuable away win at Vitality


Wolverhampton is seriously playing one amazing football lately after a slow start in the season, recording their eight unbeaten game, the Wolves are moving on up the standings in the overall table with a valuable win.

A valuable away win against AFC Bournemouth not considered the elite of teams in EPL but for sure not the easiest and one that can play a mean game of football against anyone and sure play the role of spoilers.

However, today was not a good day for Eddie Howe and company after seeing his side getting his captain Simon Francis double booking got him a costly red card, soon his comeback to the Cherries starting eleven. 
 
In addition, for Howe and company seeing a nightmarish filled first half that saw the red card and his side surrendering two costly goals that in the end, they came back to haunt them and costing them dearly the match at home.

With the first score of the game, a beauty of a direct shoot by the Wolves João Moutinho free-kick left the Cherries players and keeper alike glancing such beauty and opening the score for the visitors in what could be a goal rout. 

In the 21’ minute the first goal came unopposed after a foul from AFC defender Steve Francis getting his first yellow card, setting the play for goal after fouling Wolves Diogo Jota outside the area. 

Ten minutes passed when the visitors started another play towards a goal, when João Moutinho free-kick to Adama Traore found an opportune Raul Jimenez and finding the center to just push the ball and score what became the game-winner. 

A close-range shot that the Mexican international score and bringing his tally in the season to six goals and counting as well helping his side move up in the overall table. 

Still, the second half marked a difference for the AFC side when Steve Cook made it into a contest with a header and bringing his side close to the visiting side, but in the end, the Wolves defense came big and never surrendered for the win. 

Now for Wolverhampton, these are looking forward to continuing their winning ways with a home game against Sheffield United, but today hail to a deserved victory on the road.
