Wolves boss O'Neil delighted with Neto and Cunha for FA Cup win

Wolves boss Gary O'Neil was delighted with his players after their 2-0 FA Cup win at West Brom.

Pedro Neto and Matheus Cunha were the goalscorers.

O'Neil said: “They're both hugely important to us. We are really short as a football club in numbers for attacking players, but we're not short in quality.

"Pedro and Cunha, Channy [Hwang] not being here, Bellegarde as well had some good moments today, we had to use Rayan [Ait-Nouri] as an attacker, Tawanda [Chirewa] coming on again, so we are short in the attacking area, but the quality we have there, we are a threat.

“I don't know about aim, but when we were drawn at Brentford away, I said the aim at that moment was to win the FA Cup, so it was Brentford then and today it was West Brom, so let's see what we'll get in the next round, but we'll try to win every game.

“We've got Manchester United and Chelsea coming up in a few days' time and three days apart, so it will be a big testing week for us, so we need to get the boys recovered and get ready for two very big league games and see what the draw holds for us."
