The wolf has secured an important 2-0 victory against Aston Villa in Morinnow. As a result, they lifted them from the demoted zone and gained momentum for survival bidding.
Matheus Cunha was a hero and provided a great slower goal to seal the victory in the nervous West Midlands derby.
The match began with wolves showing more urgency and intentions. Their counter attack abilities were anxious about the repeatedly tired villa side, and the host led 1-0 in half time.
Junrickner’s Bergard broke the deadlock with the composed finish after a quick break, taking advantage of Villa’s defense confusion.
Villa Manager Unai Emery responded with a bold movement during the break and made four alternatives trying to inject life into him. Despite the fresh legs and tactical adjustments, the villa struggled to penetrate the stubborn defense of the wolf.

When the villa desperately pushed the equalizer, the wolf was elastic, absorbed pressure, and seemed dangerous at the counter.
The decisive moment arrived deeply at the stop time. EZRI KONSA’s failed clearance was given the opportunity to CUNHA.
The Brazilian embarked on a determined stopstar run that seems to have reached the dead end.
However, he created enough space to unleash intense strikes, passed Emiliano Martinez and sent a ball to the left corner.
CUNHA soon received a yellow card. Otherwise, there was a small scratch on wonderful performance. The wolf navigated the last moment with tactical nauss, using replacements to confuse the rhythm of the villa and effectively manage clocks.
This victory marks the wolf’s villa three consecutive home victory, greatly boosting the demand.
For Villa, defeat avoids their top four desires.
