Wolves striker Raul Jimenez happy scoring in Torino win

Wolves striker Raul Jimenez was delighted with victory at Europa League opponents Torino.

The Mexican joined Romain Saiss and Diogo Jota on the scoresheet against Torino, as they won the first-leg of their playoff 2-3.

Jimenez said of their three away goals: "That's very good for us. It's a very good advantage for us to score three goals away, now we have to keep doing the same in the league and then next week in the Europa League to get into the group stage.

“It's amazing to score a goal as a forward, I think it's the best thing in football, so I'm going to keep working to score more goals."

He continued: “I'm very happy to be part of this amazing win here in Italy. We knew it was going to be a tough game, but we did it great. We did very good things.

“Unfortunately, they scored a last-minute goal, so we have to keep improving and next week we have to finish this.

“Maybe the first minutes are difficult, but then we get into the game, we do what we normally do and that's why we go back to Wolverhampton with the advantage."
