True, Wolves were off the pace, but they improved in the second half.
Maybe they were surprised by the first half. Even so, given they put us under a lot of pressure they didn’t look like scoring apart from the shot that hit the post. Podence should have scored that - it was the only time I noticed they had us outnumbered in our box, with space and time.
As for set pieces, I know and am aware this could be a massive textbook for next time, but we defend set pieces and corners very well now and have done for some time. The only way they managed to get an effort on target was with an attempt at a training ground Hail Mary, which definitely says something.
