Crystal Palace continued their impressive form with a 3-1 victory over Wolves, propelled by Michael Olise’s exceptional performance. Olise, who scored twice in their previous match against Manchester United, opened the scoring with a stunning curling effort from outside the box. He then assisted Jean-Philippe Mateta’s goal before Wolves’ Matheus Cunha pulled one back. Eberechi Eze sealed the win for Palace, who climbed above Wolves into 12th place in the Premier League.
Olise’s goal marked his 10th of the season, showcasing his growing importance to the team. Despite missing an early chance, the 22-year-old displayed composure to convert his next opportunity, highlighting his development into a world-class player.
Meanwhile, Wolves’ sluggish performance extended their poor run of form, with just one win in their last nine league matches. With their Premier League status secured and European football out of reach, Wolves seem to be coasting towards the end of the season. Manager O’Neil may already be focusing on summer plans and identifying targets to strengthen the team for the future. Despite Palace’s leapfrogging of Wolves in the table, the contrasting performances on the pitch underscored the gap between the two sides.
