Wolves manager Bruno Lage insists his side deserved to beat Newcastle United on Sunday.

The Molineux outfit were denied a 1-0 victory when Allan Saint-Maximin scored for Toon in the last minute.

Speaking after the game, Lage said: "I think we did a good game, the way we started the game, the way we went to press. The good signs were there.

"First-half I think we controlled everything, against Newcastle, the way they play, with long balls in behind for three fast attackers and second balls. We were very brave at set pieces.

"After, there's a little bit of frustration of course, the way they scored the goal at the end of the game. Today, to be honest, we deserved the three points. It's hard when I go inside and see the frustration of my players. It was an easy chance for them to score a goal.

"A lucky chance in my opinion. Two decisions with VAR, every time it was against us – two little things which bring frustration, but it's just one point."
