Wolverhampton Wanderers maintained their hopes of snatching a European spot for next season after an excellent volley from Jonny and an Ashley Young own goal helped them to a 2-1 win over Aston Villa in the Premier League on Saturday.
Wolves moved a point ahead of West Ham United into seventh place, but David Moyes's side have a game in hand.
Half an hour later, the hosts got their second goal, albeit with a slice of luck, when wing back Fernando Marcal's cross bounced off substitute Young and looped past Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez into the net. Forward Ollie Watkins wasted a couple of gilt-edged opportunities before winning a penalty when he was bowled over in the box by Wolves goalkeeper Jose Sa.
