Wolves faced a challenging encounter as they found themselves trailing 2-0 within the first 30 minutes of the match. Jorgen Strand Larsen managed to reduce the deficit from the penalty spot, and Marshall Munetsi drew the sides level deep into first-half injury time. However, the decisive moment came in the 95th minute when Lyle Foster struck beyond Sam Johnstone, sealing a dramatic victory for the opposition. The final whistle saw manager Vitor Pereira in an animated discussion with supporters, requiring an escort as chants of “You’re getting sacked in the morning” echoed from the South Bank.
Vitor Pereira said: “If we win two or three games in a row, things will change. Now they sing my name to sack me.”
Jose Sa said: “When I go home, I don’t speak to my wife because we lose, because I am sad.”
The defeat further fueled frustrations among Wolves supporters, who have been vocal about the team’s disappointing start to the season. Jose Sa, who was dropped for a fourth consecutive match, faced questions from frustrated fans outside Molineux. In footage shared on social media, Sa is seen engaging with supporters, expressing his own disappointment and sadness over the team’s performance.
The 32-year-old goalkeeper spent several minutes speaking with fans, who demanded answers for the team’s struggles. Responding to the video, one Wolves supporter commented, “Fair play to Sa, you may not think he’s a great keeper, but this isn’t his fault and he’s front up in a way that Shi should be.” Another supporter questioned, “So we should just shout stuff at Jose Sa then, who wasn’t even playing?” while another added, “I take Sa’s side. The guy had no involvement in today’s mess.”
Despite not being on the pitch, Sa’s willingness to engage with fans has garnered him some support, with many directing their frustrations towards manager Vitor Pereira and Jeff Shi instead. The situation highlights the growing pressure on Wolves’ management to turn around their fortunes and address the concerns of their passionate fanbase.
