"Last place" Wolverhampton beat "Big Fish" Liverpool and won two consecutive games. Hwang Hee-chan, who recovered from injury, was listed on the roster for the first time in a long time, but his participation was canceled.

Wolverhampton won 2-1 at home in the 29th round of the "2025-2026 English Premier League" against Liverpool at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England on the 4th (Korea time).

This is Wolverhampton's third win in 29 rounds of the league. Wolverhampton, the lowest of the 20 EPL teams, trailed 19th-ranked Burnley (19 points) by three points with 16 points (3 wins, 7 draws and 20 losses).

It is 11 points behind Nottingham Forest (27 points), which is 17th place in the relegation Maginot Line. Although it is not an easy situation, he is determined to accumulate as many points as possible in the remaining eight games and remain in the first division.

On the other hand, Liverpool, which failed to win four consecutive games, ranked fifth with 48 points (14 wins, 6 draws, 9 losses). Liverpool hit a total of 19 shots on the day, but it led to a score only once.

Both teams finished the first half without scoring a goal. Wolverhampton, who continued to be dragged in the second half, broke the balance first. In the 33rd minute of the second half, Tolu Arokodare stabbed a forward pass to Hodrigo Gomes, who plays in the back of the defense. Gomes, who caught the ball, broke through the penalty box. He then overcame the competition with the defender, fell, and shot to score.

Liverpool, which was hit hard, immediately fought back. Two minutes later, Rio Ngumoha's shot hit the post, and Mohamed Salah scored an equalizer in the 38th minute of the second half. Salah, who intercepted the ball from the Wolverhampton camp, dribbled through the box and shot to shake the net.

But Wolverhampton were not happy with the draw. A theater goal was scored at the end of the game. Andre, who caught the ball from behind the arc circle in the fourth minute of extra time in the second half, boldly hit the shot. The ball deflected off the defender and entered the Liverpool goal. Soon the closing whistle went off and Liverpool won a valuable victory.

Meanwhile, Hwang Hee-chan, who suffered a calf injury against Chelsea on the 11th of last month, was listed as a substitute for the first time in five league games, but failed to play on the ground.

The British 'Guardian' reported, "Wolverhampton surprised Liverpool with Andre's last winning goal, causing pain to Arne Slot."

Wolverhampton manager Rob Edwards sprinted down the touchline and cheered as Andre's theatrical goal hit. In a post-match interview, he said: "It doesn't matter where we're ranked at the moment. The opponent we won is Liverpool. (The theatrical bone) is not very good for my heart, but I can get used to this feeling as much as I want," he said, expressing his joy.
