Peixoto: 'We deserved the win'
- Published14 minutes ago
Wolves boss Cesar Peixoto says his side were good value for their2-1 win at Bristol City on Wednesday,even though they left it late to seal it.
Substitute Sean Neave struck twice from close range in the final eight minutes to turn the game around for Wolves, who had trailed at the break to Scott Twine's stunning free-kick.
Peixoto told BBC Radio WM: "Before we conceded the goal, we created a lot of chances to cross and too many people inside of the box took a lot of time to finish the play, to shoot to the target - sometimes when we crossed we didn't attack the ball in the right moment.
"We talked with the players at half-time, they understood what we had to do in the second half.
"They played what the game needed - more directly, attacked the space, more reaction when we lost the ball, more intensity to press the opposition team."
Peixoto praised his side for the manner of their late comeback and the impact of the substitutes.
"We pushed them, we believed to the end, the players who came from the bench [were] very important," he added.
"We put two strikers [on] to make the team more offensive and we scored one goal and we kept believing and we scored the second goal - I think we deserved the win."
