Wolves boss Nuno 'very proud' after Man Utd FA Cup shock

Wolves boss Nuno admits he's "very proud" to hve reached the FA Cup semis after victory over Manchester United.

Wolves were deserved 2-1 winners on the night.

Nuno said: "I'm very proud of the players. We had composure, shape, good running. Very well done to the boys and it was a fantastic atmosphere.

"It means a lot because we know how big Wolves were in the 1950s and 1960s and there are people in the stadium who have memories of that. To try to achieve the same is much, much harder now but we will try step by step. We will respect everybody in the semi-finals."

He added: "When the transfer window happened we decided to go this way with 16 players. Every member of the squad is important and is always involved in competition. Of course there are risks but it is my belief that a small squad can achieve things."
