Wolves midfielder Lemina: Victory over Sheffield Utd was deserved

Wolves midfielder Mario Lemina says they deserved their 1-0 win against Sheffield United.

Pablo Sarabia scored the winner on the day.

Lemina said: "It was difficult, the second half because we have to hold the ball in this kind of situation but most the important thing is three points and to improve.

"I don't know why [it seemed nervy] because we have some really confident players with the ball we didn't find a way to play in the second half but as we always do we tried to be compact together, strong as a team and we deserved the three points I think."

On his sportsmanship by playing the ball out when Vini Souza had cramp, with Ivo Grbic out of his goal, he added: "I try always to score but sometimes I couldn't."

Sarabia also said on the prospect of European football: "We have to think game by game, I think it's the key of this team and focus on Wednesday for our big game and after come back to the Premier League."
