Brentford Defeat Wolves 2-0 Amid Wolves' Extended Winless Run and Club Changes
Brentford secured a 2-0 victory over Wolves at Molineux, with Keane Lewis-Potter scoring twice in the 63rd and 83rd minutes.
This defeat extended Wolves' winless run to 10 Premier League matches, marking the club's worst-ever sequence and leaving them 14 points adrift from safety.
Late in the game, Caoimhín Kelleher saved a controversial penalty taken by Jørgen Strand Larsen.
Wolves' first shot on target only came in the 31st minute from an André free-kick that hit the wall, marking their longest wait for a first Premier League shot in six years.
Brentford made a change with Yehor Yarmolyuk starting in place of last week's goalscorer Jordan Henderson.
The match took place amid off-field changes for Wolves, including the departure of Jeff Shi as chair and Nathan Shi taking interim charge of the club.
A minute’s silence was observed in memory of Ethan McLeod, a Wolves trainee who died in a car accident; his brother Conor was among the spectators.
Historically, only three teams in Premier League history have lost 10 consecutive matches, and all finished bottom of the league in May.
