Wolves fans react on Twitter to historic win over Manchester City
The Premier League Asia Trophy marked Wolves’ first venture to China, and it also marked the club’s first trophy on the homeland soil of owners Fosun.
Some of the pack said Fosun must have been “buzzing,” meanwhile others jested that Wolves should already be given the 19/20 Premier League cup.
That was just meant to be. In Asia as well. Bet Fosun are buzzing.

Others were wondering when the club would hold a bus parade in Wolverhampton, but a number of fans were more bothered about the club announcing the rumoured transfer of Ruben Dias (Express & Star).
