What a night for Newcastle United’s teenage loan star Sean Neave at Wolves.
A Wednesday night he will never forget.
With Wolves back in the Premier League and much of the squad still relegated from the top flight, Sean Neave has struggled to get much time on the pitch in the Championship.
The 19-year-old Newcastle United fan watched Wolves go down 1-0 to Bristol City on the bench again this evening.
Nine minutes later, Neave’s former United team-mate Kieran Trippier curled in a cross from the right, Newcastle fan and former NUFC striker Adam Armstrong saved his first-time effort, only for Sean Neave to pounce on the ball.
First goal in senior football for Sean Neave and a valuable point for Wolves.
However, with just a minute left in normal time, Wolves captain Kieran Tripper converted a free-kick, Ladislav Krejci headed home and Sean Neave headed home the winner!
I am very happy for him.
The Geordie from Winlaton had to spend his teenage years and work hard in training, scoring his first goals in senior football.
Sean Neave has only played 153 minutes of Championship football yet, but now has two goals and one assist.
Thanks to their on-loan striker, Wolves move up to second in the table, with Middlesbrough now just a point ahead of them.
