Match Thread: Wolves vs Torino (Europa League)
By Wolves
August 29 2019
Nuno Espírito Santo has urged his Wolves team to concentrate on beating opponents Torino tonight, and not to think about getting into the next round of the Europa League.
Wolves will be looking to build on their lead from last week's away game, whilst Torino know they must win by at least two goals considering the three away goals scored by Wolves in Turin. Wolves fans will expect some changes to be made from the team that put in a lacklustre showing against Burnley on Sunday, and there have not been any injury concerns shared in the pre-match press conference.

Nuno has opted for a strong team tonight - clearly adopting An Angry Wolf’s mantra that our team should easily be able to play two games in a week.
Line-up: Patricio, Vallejo, Coady, Boly, Traore, Dendoncker, Saiss, Moutinho, Jonny, Jimenez,
Jota
Subs: Ruddy, Vinagre, Bennett, Gibbs-White, Neves, Neto, Cutrone
I’m a little surprised Cutrone hasn’t secured a starting place, but we have faith in Nuno

Torino are going to have to be quite adventurous so hopefully this will play right into our hands.

Early opportunity for Jota but he holds play up rather than taking on the man

A couple of attacks and a corner from Torino, nothing serious but shows their intent. Well, they’ve got to haven’t they!

Free kick to Torino just missed with good Wolves defensive work. Previous sloppy defending from Vallejo (spelling?!).
First free kick to Wolves, 30 yards out, Saiss has a blast, hits the wall, cleared

Damn - forgot it was a 7:45 kickoff and forgot to make my forecast!!
Torino full of energy but no end result. Wolves need to get in control.

‘18 - good attack from Torino but again comes to nothing. I’d say they’re the better side atm but early days and Rui has been untroubled up to now

Well, Traore the train, split the defence beautifully with both skill and the usual pace to burn, left them dead and fired against the keeper! Not a bad shot TBH, keeper kept his position well

1st yellow for Torino. Since that 1 on 1 from Traore we’ve really taken the upper hand and looked more dangerous. Looking good

Almost spoke too soon, they broke clear down their right, crossed, half decent header sees Rui’s hands warmed for the first proper time.

A much better performance , with Torino needing 3 goals I think we're all but in the group stages. I hope Traore starts at Goodison as I dont know what more he can do to get game time having been a key performer again

I am still not quite sure what Traore will do, nevertheless he’s clearly been working hard and sharpened up. Nowhere near as good as Doc defending but Doc is off form and Adama deserves a start.
Anyway we’ve been playing for 2 plus minutes now!
C’mon Wolves!

2nd yellow, Jota cynically floored, free kick, 35 yards out ..... comes to nothing!

Santero wine ..... Bellerini prosciutto and salami. Just a couple of the local Black Country delicacies being advertised on the electronic hoardings tonight. I’ll let you know when I see the Bathams, gray paes and bacon or scratchin’s pop up!
In the meantime 1-1 after a free kick and good header but wait ....., the Donk makes it 2-1!!!!
Bring on the Bathams!

If we can get another goal, perhaps he can rest Jimenez and give Cutrone a run.

3rd yellow to Torino after Jota is fouled ... btw Jota did some great work and his shot and resultant save led to Donks goal

Good effort and couple of corners to Torino, an overhead kick from them comes to nothing.
Cutrone on for Diogo.

5 to go.
Donk and Cutrone both had chances to make it 3. Donk should have finished the tie there

Id play Traore much further forward, he's a winger/striker more than a RB

Good game tonight against a very good footballing team Saiss was my MOTM he played really well braking them up time after time and sprayed the ball about well he does not always get the credit he deserves.
