Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1 Liverpool

Rodrigo Gomes scored for the second match running as the Premier League’s bottom-placed team Wolverhampton Wanderers recorded a shock victory over champions Liverpool at the Molineux.

Gomes, who struck against Aston Villa last Friday, put the hosts 1-0 ahead in a frantic end to the match on 78 minutes. Mohamed Salah equalised for Liverpool just five minutes later, but as the Reds chased a winner, Wolves were able to counter and score a 94th-minute winner through tireless Brazilian midfielder Andre.

Rodrigo’s goal was the pick of the bunch, however, with the former Braga mad showing good pace to get in behind the Liverpool backline before beating Allison with a beautiful poked finish with the outside of his right boot. After a season disrupted by a groin injury, Gomes was beaming during his post-match interview.

“Amazing game, amazing night,” Gomes told TNT Sports on the pitch just moments after the final whistle. “Winning two games in a row here, under the lights with our fans was just unbelievable. The ambience was unbelievable, I’m very, very happy.

“We’ve found something? Yeah that’s true. It may be a little late, but we need to keep going, keep the momentum. We’re playing good, we’re doing beautiful things so we need to keep going, keep believing in ourselves, giving everything until the last minute and winning games.

“[The goal] was a very good moment, I’m very happy. Scoring here in a big game, was very good and I’m very happy. It was a good finish, difficult because I had them on my back. But I shot and I scored so I’m very happy.

“Unfortunately, I’ve had a groin injury, but now I’m feeling very good, I’m feeling sharp, feeling good. So that’s very good.”

Back-to-back victories over Villa and Liverpool have massively boosted morale at Molineux, but chances of survival remain slim with Wolves 11 points adrift of Nottingham Forest in 17th having played two more matches.
