The winger struck twice in three minutes to turn the game in Wolves’ favour, but the 23-year-old is keeping his feet firmly on the ground and has encouraged his team mates to remain consistent ahead of a challenging week. 

“I am very happy,” he said. “I am happy to score two goals. It was a difficult start because we conceded a very good goal but then we worked hard and had a very good comeback. It was an amazing game. We must keep going.”

“I think you can see in the way we play, we look happy and we look confident. We need to keep going and doing that. We are in good momentum, so [we need to] keep it going.”
