Wolves boss Bruno Lage insists they didn't deserve defeat at Newcastle on Friday.
A Chris Wood penalty was the difference between the two teams.
Lage said, “I think, especially from our side, it was a game with two distinct halves. First-half we controlled the game, without and with the ball, we know how dangerous Newcastle can be with the runs in behind, and men in front. They want to push us with defenders and Shelvey, to try to find the run in behind.
“We controlled that, but after with the ball I think we controlled the game, but didn't create, we weren't aggressive, we didn't create our chances, but we were there with the ball.
“Second-half I think it was different. We were the better side, we started very well, we tried to find the spaces, the zones to be nearer the box. The first five minutes of the second-half we created more danger than what we did in the first-half and then comes the moment when the game is ours, and it comes one more time a penalty."
He added: “We controlled everything, we didn't control that penalty, but this is the things that happen in football. Credit for Newcastle, they did a good game, they took their chance and win, but for us we continue to work. Now we have some days off because we don't have a game next week and after we come again with the same mentality to play against Burnley."
