Wolverhampton Wanderers defeated Manchester United at Molineux for the second time in a few weeks.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s men followed up their FA Cup win over United by securing a 2-1 win in the Premier League.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men now face a fight to earn a Champions League place, whilst Wolves head to Wembley for their cup semi-final in great spirits.

Wolves are seventh in the table and kept their noses in front of Watford with last night’s win.

Goals from Diogo Jota and a Chris Smalling own goal saw the hosts come from behind following Scott McTominay’s opener.

Jota’s performances, in particular, have been catching the eye of late.

The £55k-a-week (Spotrac) forward has eight goals and five assists this season and is a popular figure with the club’s supporters.

Jota’s goal to restore parity last night was a decent strike and the club’s official Twitter account had a message from the forward afterward.

Jota said: “Hello everyone, thanks for the support tonight, it was a great game. We are looking forward to seeing you on Sunday at Wembley.”

Wolves fans took to social media to congratulate the 22-year-old on another fine display.
