The Cherries bagged their third league win in four, which left Wolves with a first home defeat in 2026.

The home side did not do a lot wrong in the first period until Andre's error led to 19-year-old Kroupi firing in his eighth goal of the campaign.

Wolves were unable to break down the Cherries defence but it was not for the want of trying, as Djordje Petrovic was forced into a string of second-half saves to keep their lead intact, while Joao Gomes hit the post.

Andoni Iraola's Cherries have not enjoyed the best of times away from their own patch but Scott sunk a late dagger into Wolves to seal all three points and their first win on the road since a 1-0 victory over Spurs in August.
