Wolves will play Bristol City in the fifth round if they beat Shrewsbury in their replay and some fans are fancying their chances of silverware.
Wolverhampton Wanderers will travel to Bristol City in the fifth round of the FA Cup should they triumph in their fourth-round replay against Shrewsbury Town.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s charges came within a whisker of being on the receiving end of a giant killing as the League One Shrews led going into injury time of the game at the New Meadow.
However, Matt Doherty’s 93rd-minute equaliser salvaged a 2-2 draw, keeping Wolves in the hat for round five and, should they win their replay at Molineux, they will face a team currently chasing a Championship playoff place.
Last season, Wolves and City played two notable games in the league – a 3-3 draw at Molineux in September which included a goal apiece in the final 10 minutes, and a 2-1 win at Ashton Gate in which both sides were reduced to ten men and Ryan Bennett scored a dramatic 94th-minute winner.
Given Wanderers have developed a knack of scoring late goals in recent games, there could well be a repeat of the absolute scenes in Bristol from that game in December 2017 – but of course, there’s Shrewsbury standing in the way first.
Following the draw, here is how some Wolves fans reacted to the prospect of playing the Robins in round five:
