A blistering start in Monday's away trip to Sheffield proved to be rewarding for Wolves as they managed to take a big lead inside the first 360 seconds of the encounter. Nuno Espirito Santos' men struck twice to set the tone for their season curtain raiser, becoming the team to score the two quickest goals in their opening match of a new Premier League campaign.
It all began after Podence broke down the left flank and managed to pick out Jimenez in the middle of the box of the hosts. The Mexican striker made no mess of the opportunity, as he shot first time to grab his 50th league goal in European club football.

About 180 seconds later, the visitors doubled their advantage, thanks to Romain Saiss. The Moroccan rose above everyone else to guide home a brilliant cross from Pedro Neto for his team's second.
It gets even better for #WWFC!
