Super Eagles forward Tolu Arokodare rose to the occasion on Tuesday night, producing a decisive assist that powered Wolves to a memorable Premier League win over Liverpool at Molineux.
Thrown into the action in the 59th minute in place of Adam Armstrong, Arokodare wasted little time announcing himself.
Super Eagles Forward Tolu Arokodare Swings Momentum for Wolves
Just 19 minutes after stepping onto the pitch, his strength, sharp movement and quick feet carved open Liverpool’s defence.
The Nigerian international teed up the breakthrough as Wolves punished the visitors and eventually secured a dramatic 2-1 triumph on home soil.
For the 25-year-old, it marked his first Premier League assist of the campaign and lifted his season tally to seven goal contributions — two goals and one assist in the EPL, one goal and one assist in the FA Cup, and two goals in the EFL Cup.
Wolves Stun Liverpool as André Seals Late Drama
Wolverhampton Wanderers celebrated back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time since April 2025, sealing this one in breathtaking fashion. André grabbed his first goal for the club deep into stoppage time to settle a tense contest.
Liverpool had begun brightly, with Cody Gakpo and Jeremie Frimpong threatening, but clear chances were limited in a cagey first half. The visitors managed only two efforts on target, while Wolves failed to register a shot before the interval.
After the restart, Arne Slot’s men pushed harder. A penalty appeal was turned down, and Hugo Ekitiké came close as the pressure mounted.
Yet it was Wolves who struck first against the run of play when Super Eagles forward Tolu Arokodare set up Rodrigo Gomes for a brilliant 78th-minute opener.
Mohamed Salah restored parity late on, but André’s heavily deflected effort ultimately broke Liverpool hearts and dealt a blow to their top-five ambitions.
