Rodrigo Muniz's superb chipped goal secured a 2-1 victory for Fulham against Wolves at Molineux, lifting them to ninth in the Premier League and boosting their European hopes.

Fulham started fast, with Ryan Sessegnon scoring in the first minute, but Joao Gomes equalized for Wolves in the 18th minute. Muniz restored Fulham's lead just after halftime, finishing Adama Traoré's excellent pass with a composed chip over José Sá.

Wolves manager Vitor Pereira criticized his team's slow start, saying they were "sleeping" at the beginning of both halves. Despite late chances, including two misses from Matheus Cunha, Wolves remain five points above the relegation zone but could be dragged into danger if Ipswich or Leicester win their games in hand.

Marco Silva's tactical changes paid off, with five fresh players making an impact, and Fulham held on for another crucial win in their European push.
