    Wolves 2-1 Liverpool: ‘Same old story’ for Arne Slot as Wolves vow to ‘keep fighting’

    Molineux has seen as many Premier League wins in the past five days as it had in the previous 10 months. But through its history, it can’t have seen many more dramatic than this.

    Make no mistake, Wolves were well worth the three points here. At 1-1, they pushed for a winner and got their reward, albeit with a slice of luck with the deflection off Joe Gomez.

    “This is Liverpool Football Club – never mind this position you’re in, any time you beat them, you’ve got to enjoy the moment,” said Edwards.

    “They’re an amazing football club with an amazing manager and loads of great players. So it was a big, big night for us.”

    The Wolves head coach joked afterwards that he had injured himself when sprinting down the touchline after his team’s late winner.

    “What we’re trying to do is improve,” he added. “We’re trying to build some momentum. We know the position we’re in. I know I’ve lost myself in that moment there. People might think we’re bottom of the league but you saw the energy around this place. You have to enjoy it. We’re trying to turn things around.

    “There is a belief that we are going in the right direction. Whatever happens until the end of that 38th game, we’ll just keep fighting.”

    With victories against Aston Villa and Liverpool in their past two Premier League games, Wolves are the first bottom-placed side to beat two teams in the top five in a single season since West Brom in 2017-18, and the first to ever do so in consecutive matches.

    While Liverpool are fighting for Champions League football, Wolves are fighting against the impossible and sit 11 points from safety with eight games remaining.

    This result, in all likelihood, will ultimately have no impact on their future in the Premier League, but Rodrigo Gomes, the scorer of their first goal on Tuesday, is keeping the faith.

    “We know we are in a tough position,” he told BBC Sport. “It’s very difficult but we need to keep believing. If it is possible, we need to keep believing.

    “Now we need to work, game by game and not think ‘if we win this game or this game, we avoid relegation’. Game by game, working like this every week then maybe – we will see.”

    As one Wolves fan told BBC Sport on his way out of Molineux: “It’s crazy how we are where we are in the table.”

    For a side and fanbase who have endured plenty this season, this was a night they will not forget in a hurry.

    And they get the opportunity to try to do it all again when Liverpool return on Friday in the FA Cup.
