Wolves boss O'Neil pleased with 2-goal Cunha

Wolves boss Gary O'Neil was pleased with Matheus Cunha in their 2-2 draw against Nottingham Forest.

Cunha struck both goals for Wolves.

O'Neil said: “It was a really good run and finish from him (for the first goal). I don't like him much playing in the position that we played him today, and he doesn't like it much either, but he had to play as a nine today and you could see he comes down a lot and he drifts and he's not naturally in the nine position often.

“We're keen to get him back in his best spot which is where his goal came from, on that left side. But we're delighted with the set-play goal because we've worked hard on those, a free header from Max [Kilman] at the back and some good work from the coaching team to get us that one.

“It could have gone either way. They had more shots, we had more control, and more possession, and we're hoping to get better than that, but it was the best we could offer, although it's another good point on the road."
