Wolves are into the FA Cup quarter finals.
Wolves manager Matt Doherty has praised wing-back Matt Doherty after another impressive performance.
The defender played 81 minutes of Wolves 1-0 win away to Bristol City.
The victory sent Wolves into the quarter finals of the FA Cup, with Ivan Cavaleiro scoring a winner.
Manager Nuno Santo raved about Doherty after the victory, picking him out for praise.
Santo said he was pleased with the way Doherty has raised his game all season long.
He told the club’s official website: “Doherty has been fantastic. He has a big heart, he goes up and down, doesn’t rest and on the other side Jonny.
It’s a tough job and we are very, very happy with him. I think last season he had a fantastic season and this was a big challenge to prove himself in the Premier League and he’s doing so well.
“He had a knock and was not able to continue. It was tough, he held on for the maximum he could, but in the end, he had to come off.”
Doherty saw teammate Barry Douglas replaced and sold in the summer and has stepped his game up to avoid the same fate.
His performances have gone from strength to strength and were rewarded over the weekend with a new deal.
Sky Sports reported how Doherty along with Conor Coady, have both signed contract extensions which run up until 2023.
