League leaders Wolves earned their biggest home win of the season against Leeds.
Barry Douglas delighted the Molineux crowd by opening the scoring with a trademark free-kick as Wolverhampton Wanderers beat promotion hopefuls Leeds United 4-1 – and Wolves fans are euphoric over his display on Twitter.
In what was Wolves’ biggest home win of the season in the Championship on Wednesday night, 28-year-old Douglas scored his second goal of the season by curling in an exquisite effort from the edge of the area.
Wolves went on to earn an excellent three points against the Yorkshire outfit, with Ivan Cavaleiro, Diego Jota and Helder Costa all getting on the score sheet.
Gjanni Alioski did score a well-worked goal for Leeds, volleying home a defence-splitting chip from Samu Saiz, but Wolves dominated the match after teenage midfielder Ronaldo Vieira received his marching orders for a second yellow card.
Scotland international Douglas, a summer signing from Konyaspor, has become somewhat of an assist machine for the Midlands giants. Making 13 appearances, Wolves’ number three has laid on seven goals as well as scoring twice.
Wolves fans reacted with delight on Twitter to his performance and goal, as the three points pushed Wolves four points clear at the top of the Championship standings. One fan even described Douglas as the “Scottish Roberto Carlos”.
