Wolves manager Vitor Pereira believes his team fully earned their victory over Ipswich Town in a vital Premier League relegation showdown at Portman Road on Saturday.
Ipswich grabbed the lead early on, poised to narrow the gap to Wolves to six points, but Pereira’s squad fought back to claim a 2-1 triumph.
The result extends Wolves’ buffer over the Blues to 12 points, with only seven matches and 21 points remaining in the season.
Speaking to the Wolves website, Pereira said: “I’m very happy for the players, for the club, and especially for the supporters.
“First half was not the way that we prepared. We prepared to try to win. We created two or three chances to score, but the pace and the pressing was not what I asked.
“Half time we changed tactically and we started to create problems, to control what we did, and had better quality in possession, better movements, a little bit higher to press, and we created chances to score two goals, and I think we deserved to win the game.
“We have very good players, and we are proving that we have the true spirit of a team, playing as a team.
“As I said in the beginning, when we started our work, firstly, create that identity, and after be consistent, better and better and better.
“And I think, this is my opinion, we deserved this result.”
