Aston Villa 0 Wolves 1




Saturday's match felt more like a training session for Wolves as they calmly strolled to an away 
1 - 0 win against their Midlands rivals Aston Villa. 

The goal itself was a gem with Jonny Otto winning the ball and smartly turned from defence, and passed it to Adama Traore. Traore then passed it to Raul Jiminez, who held it for a while, and then relayed it back to Jonny, who by this time was deep in the Villa penalty box.  He lost his balance, and while on the floor, slipped the ball over to the lurking Leander Dendonker who controlled it calmly, before picking the bottom right hand corner of the Villa keeper's net.

1 - 0 !

3 wins out of 3 since the restart, and with 3 clean sheets. OK, they were not wins against the top 6, but in the Premier League, every team can and do cause upsets.

Next Sunday's match against Arsenal, I will put my money on Wolves again, just by their tremendous workrate, their flowing skill and solidarity amongst all team members.
