Wolves seize first league win as Matheus Cunha magic sees off Southampton
Wolves’ survival hopes and Gary O’Neil’s job security are intrinsically linked to the form of Matheus Cunha. The Brazilian created one and scored another against Southampton to secure a first league victory of the season and take the pressure off his manager for the time being at least.
Cunha was the difference between two underwhelming sides, who can boast one win each after 11 matches. Southampton’s problem is scoring goals and they brought a rubber spoon to a knife fight to hand Wolves a first Premier League clean sheet of the season as they doubled their points tally thanks to Pablo Sarabia and Cunha.
