- Brighton beat Wolves 2-0 in Molinés to increase their hopes of qualification in Europe
- Danny Welbeck opened the scoring in the first half before the arrival of Brajan Gruda
- Listen now: everything is launched! Is Arsenal even close to achieving great things?
A former Manchester United striker has shown a future how it is.
Although so much speeches in Molinine surround these days surround the future of Matheus Cunha and the merits or the doubts of an imminent summer move to Old Trafford, it is Danny Welbeck, a man who has once taken this starry path, who stole the spectacle.
That it was Cunha who kicked instead, a fault for which he had the chance not to be shown a red card, was an appropriate irony for all this and a reminder that the aging stars can often play the best tunes under the glow of the decolining light.
Welbeck’s penalty was his 10th goal in the Premier League of the season, the first time in the 34 -year career, he has reached double figures in a league campaign.
He thought that he had given Brighton the advance earlier in the first half too when he returned the crossroads of Tariq Lamptey only for a painfully long var check to confirm that Yankuba Minteh had interfered with the game from a position marginally out of the game.
He was also intelligent of Welbeck, five minutes away, which opened the space so that Simon Adingra plays in his other replacement Brajan Gruda to double Brighton’s advance and fill the victory.

For Cunha, it would probably be the penultimate moment when he goes out here in a Wolves shirt. Wolves accept that the Brazilian will leave this summer once someone, which should be Manchester United, correspond to his release clause. What an enigma they will miss. Or will they do it?
Technique and artistic talent with breathing, petulance and frustration with the other. We have seen the reasons why Manchester United want to buy it and also those who show why many wolves fans will not be traced to see it leave.
Cunha was at the heart of the good game of hosts. His first free kicks found Goncalo Guedes with the nearby post, who put the ball just above the bar with a treated blow from the outside of his boot. He forced a nice backup of Bart Verbruggen with a shot from the box in the second half. With a roll of his boot on the ball, he sent a Wolves defender in the wrong direction and fed on a teammate to win a corner.
And yet, for all that the good Cunha was in attack, it was his dozen who offered Brighton his head when he had his pocket pick by Mats Wieffer on the edge of his own box, then made late in the back of Seagulls for a penalty.
Brighton’s bench jumped into fury when he saw referee Michael Oliver show Cunha a yellow card instead of something stronger. The officials thought that Cunha wanted to play the ball, which was a rather generous interpretation of events.
He arrived in Cunha. He went down quickly after looking for a free kick, lucky to no longer be reserved, then sent 40 meters flying halfway through the stands. The misplaced passes were encountered with arms or hands to the head.

When he sent another high and wide steering wheel speculative effort in the second half, Wolves fans behind the goal began singing the name of Bancne striker Jorgen Strand Larsen.
The clock had not even spent the time when the table of the fourth official increased and the Cunha number flashed alongside Strand Larsen.
In a few moments after his arrival, Strand Larsen had almost the level of wolves while Rayan Ait-Nouri broke out on the left, in the square and the new man was only refused by the sprawling arm of the diving verbruggen.
He was left, however, for Welbeck to have one last word. His intelligent race followed a Wolves defender and the space was left to Gruda to stop and scored his first Premier League goal while the replacement fell on his knees in tears.
