Hwang Nets on Debut as Wolves earn first win

Hee-Chan Hwang’s debut goal helped earn Wolves their first points of the season as they beat a poor Watford side 2-0 at Vicarage Road.

Coming into the game without a point or a goal to their name, it looked likely to be another painful afternoon for Wolves’ new manager Bruno Lage after Nelson Semedo fired wide when clean through with an hour gone.

But a helping hand from Watford’s Francisco Sierralta, who headed into his own net from a low cross, finally got them off the mark with 15 minutes to go, and substitute Hwang then doubled the lead from close range after Marcal had hit the post.

Wolves’ victory ended Watford’s club-record run of 10 straight league wins coming into the game, inflicting a third consecutive defeat on Xisco Munoz, and dropped them below Wolves, who jumped out of the bottom three.
