Wolverhampton Wanderers coach Vitor Pereira expressed his delight following his team’s impressive 4-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at Molineux Stadium. Transitioning from his native Portugal’s wine to England’s beer, Pereira embraced the local culture, celebrating the win with fans as they brandished a banner reading “First the points, then the pints.”
Pereira, who has become a beloved figure since his appointment in December, attributed the team’s recent success to their tactical maturity. With eight wins and two draws in 16 league matches, including a remarkable four consecutive victories, Wolves are showing a marked improvement, moving away from the relegation zone and into 16th place with 35 points.
The coach highlighted the adaptability of his squad, explaining how they’ve learned to navigate various match situations effectively. “We are consistent now… Sometimes we need to wait and sometimes be compact and play on the counter,” he noted, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and understanding the game’s flow.
With a comfortable cushion of 14 points above the relegation zone, Pereira is focused on further aspirations for the club. “I am (an) ambitious guy, I want more and more,” he said, urging his players to aim for higher targets and solidify their position in the Premier League.
This latest victory, following their earlier triumph over Ipswich Town, serves as a source of renewed hope for fans, showcasing Wolves’ potential for a successful remainder of the season. As they build momentum, the team’s resilience and determination highlight a positive trajectory for Wolverhampton Wanderers as they aim to secure their Premier League future.
