Wolves captain Ruben Neves was delighted after their 1-0 defeat of Nottingham Forest.

Neves converted a penalty for the result.

He said, "We spoke about it being a difficult start all week, we knew the importance. We had a fantastic first half, Nottingham just tried to slow down the game. We had a lot of chances in the first half. Second half we played really well again, we scored.

"We conceded a penalty in the set play, we were struggling after the set play because we wanted to keep the ball. But Jose Sa is a fantastic goalkeeper, he showed it last season, he's showing it again, importantly he saved a really important penalty for us."

On how he set himself up for his penalty, Neves added: "I Just thought about myself. I know if I do it well it's really hard for the goalkeeper. That's why I try to shoot with a bit more power because I know he's a really good goalkeeper with penalties."
