Wolves manager Vitor Pereira said he was proud of his players' efforts despite seeing them lose to Nottingham Forest for the first time in a 3-0 win at Molineux.
Wolves are still struggling in the Premier League without key forward Matheus Cunha, Morgan Gibbs-White, Chris Wood and Taiwo Awoniyi have performed well and are ranked 17th in the Premier League table.
But Pereira's side were brilliant in the first half, denying striker Jorgen Strand Larsen a clearance and Forest keeper Matz Sels making several fine saves.

“I think we did what we could,” Pereira said.
“A lot of problems this week; different problems, I had to deal with injury problems. In the end we played with 11 players giving everything to get another result.
“I am happy about the players; I am proud of them for trying everything. did not run do not fight I can't tell anyone that I didn't try my best.
“In the end, 3-0 was a serious result, but we know we have to improve on this if we have to understand why it happened.
