Ryan Ait-Nouri is the youngest Frenchman to score a goal in his Premier League debut.
Teen Ryan Ayt-Nuri made his Wolves debut when Nuno Espirito Santo reached the joint top of the Premier League with a well-deserved victory over Molinho’s Crystal Palace.
The under-21 French left back, who arrived this month on a seasonal loan – with an option to buy – from Ligue 1 outfit Angers, announced his arrival in just 18 minutes and struck the first blow to the head of Sheikh Quyote.
Portugal winger Daniel Podens doubled the lead nine minutes later when he picked up Pedro Neto’s cross in the second stage.
For Rayan Ait Nouri I’m very happy, because it’s the first race and what’s the best start he can make? He is 19 years old and he has something to improve. He needs so many things on board, and it’s work.
On his way to the top three, he added: It’s about the performance, the table is not important. Work is important. The game without fans requires a lot of attention, we do not have the advantage of Molineux.
The wolves came close to the greatest joy of the first half when Nelson Semedo and Leander almost missed Dendon with efforts from outside the penalty area, while the video assistant referee denied the Palast the lifeline of the penalty area when Patrick van Aanholt was found in an offside position before being hit by Willie Pain.
The palate improved considerably after the break, but disappointed Wilfried Zaha refused to appeal and the night, disappointing for Roy Hodgson, was even worse when Luca Milivojevic got a red card for the capture of Joao Mutiño in the closing stages.
Judge Martin Atkinson observed the incident on the field monitor, but Hodgson said I didn’t think it was a spectacle, and I told Martin Atkinson that.
The fourth victory in seven races puts the wolves in third place in the standings with 13 points, with Everton and Liverpool holding the two races.
Ait-Nouri embodies the confident representation of wolves
If his last match in the Angers T-shirt was a 6-1 defeat against Paris Saint-Germain, it was a night that the impressive Ait Nouri will remember for a long time.
Manager Nuno urged his team to adopt a more clinical approach after last weekend’s 1-1 draw with Newcastle. Failure to finish the game was punished with an 89 minute penalty by Jacob Murphy.
Only the last three teams scored fewer Premier League goals than the Wolves before the game, while another well-documented problem was the slow start.
However, the goal from debutant Ait Nuri – the first in the first half since the Wolves opened the scoring – was a good start for the Portuguese coach.
Podens, whose two goals were fired at the Premier League palace, led an early attack by Volkoff when his curling shot forced Vicente Guaita to turn back after Dendonker had previously approached the post from the flank.
Dendonk hit the bar before releasing Scott Dunn on the corner on the other side, as the wolves were actually keeping the palace at bay – and although they had to work much harder after the break, they never saw the risk of denying their lead.
With Podence hoping to avoid another nervous end, Nuno will see his team develop with a quick start at the front in Molineux.
Half of the answer is insufficient for Palace
Crystal Palace arrived in Molinho to get 13 points out of their first seven games of the Premier League season for the first time in history, with added incentive to go to the top four.
Although Hodgson’s team returned to winning manners against Fulham last weekend, they were second in the first half and were lucky to be 2-0 at halftime.
It was a night in which, as with the Eagles, everything went wrong, with Mitchie Batshuai falling on an offside in the 17th minute and Zaha showing no sympathy after the loss after the restart of Ait Nuri.
Hodgson’s consolation on a disappointing evening was the tangible reaction of the players in the second half, despite the great lack of breakthroughs.
Zahah, who has scored five goals so far in the Paleisliga and is one of the eight assistants in the Paleisliga, has hit an increasingly disappointing figure in the attack, especially as he was awarded a yellow card for his goal against Ai-T-Nuri.
The dismissal of Milivojevic, which was retroactively awarded to the VAR for his challenge to the competition, weakened the result, which Hodgson will want to bury soon after a promising start to the campaign.
At the red card, Hodgson said: I’m very disappointed about that. This is kind of the worst part of the night. You can have a positive attitude, but to lose a player for three games because of a challenge that I didn’t even consider a foul would be very difficult.
If I have a choice, I’d like to appeal.
