The Belgium ace scored his first Wolves goal in the 3-1 Premier League win over Everton.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have claimed a third Premier League wins in a row, as well as tightening their grip on seventh place in the table, as they recorded a solid 3-1 win over Everton at Goodison Park.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s charges went ahead on seven minutes after Leighton Baines clipped Matt Doherty in the area, prompting referee Lee Mason to award a penalty, which Ruben Neves duly sidefooted beyond Jordan Pickford’s reach.
The Toffees, however, managed to equalise on 27 minutes through Andre Gomes, who collected a pass from Cenk Tosun and let rip with a rocket into the top corner of compatriot Rui Patricio’s net from range.
Michael Keane then impeded Diogo Jota with a shirt pull shortly before the break, which meant a free kick for Wolves, and Joao Moutinho’s delivery fell perfectly for Raul Jimenez to head home his 11th of the season.
On 65 minutes, Jonny Otto launched a swift counterattack which culminated in Jimenez slipping the ball through for Jota, whose ensuing effort was charged down, only for Leander Dendoncker to volley home his debut Wolves goal.
The Belgium international spoke to the official Wanderers channel after the victory in a video posted on their Twitter account:
