An FA Cup replay is now on the cards after Friday’s 1-1 draw, in which Wolves showed another side of them in their impressive run of form.

Resilience

With three Premier League wins in a row, Wolves showed a mixture of professionalism, a clinical edge and a creative spark across those fixtures.

But coming up against Brentford again, and with Joao Gomes sent off after just nine minutes, Wolves had a show a different side. This time, resilience was key.

Although they did go 1-0 behind just before half-time, Wolves were fairly comfortable after losing Gomes and then came out in the second half the better team, before equalising.

This team is together, a strong unit and the players are playing for each other, Gary O’Neil and the fans.

It is genuinely impressive how they keep overcoming obstacles and showing a different side to them and they will have to keep doing that as setbacks are undoubtedly on the way at some point this season.
