News about Mario Lemina

TIM NASH: Wolves are poised to play a 15-year-old schoolboy against Arsenal on Saturday after he skipped a science lesson on Friday to prepare to face the Premier League title challengers. Right back Wes Okoduwa would become Wolves' youngest player at 15 years, 344 days, with the hosts having only 10 fit senior outfield players. Craig Dawson, Nelson Semedo, Matheus Cunha, Pedro Neto and Jean-Ricard Bellegarde are all out, Hwang Hee-chan and Rayan Ait-Nouri aren't fit enough to start and Mario Lemina and Pablo Sarabia are nursing knocks.

TOM COLLOMESSE AT MOLINEUX: Gary O'Neil blasted Hee-chan Hwang's "wild" decision to host FA Cup fifth-round ties in midweek after Wolves' 1-0 victory over Brighton, despite him being hospitalized. Thanks to Mario Lemina's goal in the last eight, Wolves will meet Coventry in the last eight seconds, but Hwang suffered a hamstring injury in the second half and will miss Newcastle's journey to Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT MOLINEUX: Jason Steele failed to equalize in stoppage time after being stopped at a corner and setting up a quarter-final match against Championship club Coventry. However, the Wolves will have to play much better than this to have a chance of winning the FA Cup for the first time since 1960. Brighton were the better side of this match for a large portion of the match, but they left Molineux with nothing to show for their efforts as Sheffield United had been last Sunday.

VIEW EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW BY OLIVER HOLT CHIEF SPORTS WRITER: Gary O'Neil knocks on the door before entering the Wolverham Wanderers training ground's spartan meeting room. It's only a small detail. However, most Premier League bosses would not be knocked. They wouldn't be concerned. They didn't check until they marched in. Let's face it: Most Premier League managers will need someone to open the door for them. Another small detail. Some people have noted that the plain top O'Neil is wearing is black. It's black, and the photographer has said it will go with the background for the portrait of O'Neil, which he is planning to photograph. The top is a dark navy, as O'Neil points out. Not because he's some sort of fashionista. As a matter of fact, it's just as a matter of fact. If it's important, it might be worthwhile. Because it is a specific matter. And the fine details. It's all about the details. It's one of the things that distinguishes him as he starts a new full season as a boss in the Premier League. He knows that about himself. He is proud of it. He prides himself on his preparations, emphasizing how he makes sure his players are safe for whatever comes. He has got it covered in case of an emergency.

Manchester United have been unable to capitalize on the success of finishing third in the Premier League and winning the Carabao Cup last season. Erik ten Hag's team currently ranks ninth in the table and has succumbed to early departures in both the Champions League and Carabao Cup. They will still have a chance to return to form when they face the in-form Wolves at Molineux tonight.

The Wolves midfielder 'Deeply saddened by the irreparable death of my father,' the Wolves midfielder wrote on X, formerly Twitter. 'The memories of his indelible love and unwavering support in every corner of my life, both on and off the field.' His departure leaves a huge hole in our lives. May his soul find eternal rest. At this difficult time, I am deeply touched by the avalanche of messages of love that you have graciously sent to me and my family. 'Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your curiosity and support.'

SIMON JONES: The 18-year-old Noha, who also plays for midfielder, will be recalled from a loan spell with Sampdoria. He has appeared in all competitions this season, scoring twice in the Coppa Italia Premiavera. Nevertheless, the teen has only appeared in Serie B for Sampdoria, which has resulted in PSG's decision to recall the child.

After starting the scoring at Molineux and O'Neil, the 30-year-old remained the highest in everyone's mind after his third straight victory moved them to 11th place in the table. We've all been smiling and appreciating the results in the dressing room, but there is a sense of reality when you think about Mario,' O'Neil said. 'He is going through a trying period.' He was the first thing we talked about when we first arrived in for the match.

JOE BERNSTEIN AT MOLINEUX: Wolves won their third straight victory after showing sympathy with midfielder Mario Lemina, who died on Friday. After starting the scoring against Everton, Captain Max Kilman wore a Wolves shirt containing Lemina's No.5, further goals from Matheus Cunha and Craig Dawson underlined the home team's domination. Lemina, a key part of Wolves' resurrection this season, missed Saturday's game to remember his family in France.

Mario Lemina's father, who tragically died on Friday, has been remembered by Wolves players. On social media ahead of their Premier League match against Everton on Saturday afternoon in Molineux, the club revealed the sad news. The club's hearts go out to Mario Lemina after his father's death yesterday morning, when he was writing on X (formerly Twitter).

Mario Lemina, a midfielder for Wolves, has dedicated his goal and man-of-the-match play against Chelsea to his father. Gary O'Neil's side started scoring before Matt Doherty doubled thier lead in a 2-1 victory. Lemina revealed in a post-match that his father has been hospitalized with an illness for two months before receiving a man-of-the-match award from teammate Doherty.

Despite having to select an inexperienced bench with players who were unavailable, Wolves boss Gary O'Neil said his team deserved to win. Wolves defeated Molineux 2-1 thanks to second-half goals from Mario Lemina and Matt Doherty.

Since losing 2-1 to Wolves on Sunday, Chelsea's Mauricio Pochettino has insisted Chelsea must'blame ourselves' as he rued his team's demise. On his Premier League debut at Molineux, Mario and Matt Doherty scored for the hosts before Christopher Nkunku got on the scoresheet. Chelsea was fined for missing multiple opportunities to score, and Pochettino believes his team deserves more, but they can only blame themselves for the loss.

After Mario Lemina's second half headed goal, the Wolves defeated Chelsea in the Premier League table for the first time, the Molineux hosts win was a 2-0 victory. As the hosts finally capitalized on one of their best prospects, Mario Lemina struck right after halftime with a strong header off the back of a Wolves corner. Chelsea attempted to compel their way back into proceedings with Mykhailo Mudryk's attempt to be adamant, though Raheem Sterling was also threatening.

Matt Hobbs, the Wolves' sports director, has been suspended after being accused of an X-rated rant against referee Anthony Taylor following his team's 2-2 draw with Newcastle last month. At Molineux on October 28, Gary O'Neil's men were forced to forfeit a point against the Magpies after Callum Wilson gave the visitors the lead until Mario Lemina scored an equalizer. Wilson had pulled Eddie Howe's guys out from the spot in tense circumstances after it was found that Hwang Hee-chan fouled Newcastle's Fabian Schar following a VAR investigation.

Michael Salisbury of Referee told manager Gary O'Neil that Fulham's call to award a penalty had been reversed by VAR after Nelson Semedo's fair challenge to Tom Cairney was overturned by VAR. Fulham Carlos Vinicius and Tim Ream should have been dismissed by PGMOL executives, the former for a headbutt and the latter for a foul in the box. After a string of mishaps this year, O'Neil was upbeat, and it seems his players are swollened.

After Tottenham's early fall, which ended in back-to-back defeats for Ange Postecoglou's side, Brennan Johnson says the team deserved nothing at Wolves. As the hosts claimed a deserved 2-1 victory, Pablo Sarabia and Mario Lemina collapsed in stoppage time. Spurs took the lead after Johnson's third-minute goal, but they were second best from then onwards. "It happens in football, we've loved late games, and now we're downing, and it's really sickening." All the boys are getting the same feelings,' Johnson wrote on the club's official site. We can't complain too much because we didn't even play the game off.'

Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has argued that after Wolves' dramatic late show, Spurs must accept the pain of loss. Pablo Sarabia and Mario Lemina scored in stoppage time to cap a spectacular finish, gain a 2-1 victory, and deny Spurs top spot in the Premier League. Despite riding their luck for much of the game, Brennan Johnson's first Tottenham goal gave them a lead early and they were expected to move two points clear at the summit.

After losing their second straight defeat, Tottenham defender Joleon Lescott believes they'should need to reevaluate their hopes and look forward to the January transfer window. After Brennan Johnson's opener, goals from Pablo Sarabia and Mario Lemina produced a spectacular late comeback to deny Tottenham. Spurs lost 4-1 at the hands of rivals Chelsea, where two players were sent off, and if Man City defeated Mauricio Pochettino's team on Sunday, they would be four points off the top of the table.

MATT BARLOW AT MOLINEUX: Yes, there was nothing like the carnage of Monday night in Tottenham, but Ange Postecoglou's was still reeling, late goals, and another loss on a Saturday lunchtime in Wolverhampton. Mario Lemina scored the winning goal in the seventh minute of stoppage time by turning in a cross from replacement Pablo Sarabia, who had scored the equalizer just six minutes before. Spurs had to fall behind with a goal by Brennan Johnson in the third minute and led to the board's showing six minutes of stoppage time.

JOE BERNSTEIN OF MOLINEUX: It's a long way from Chuncheon, South Korea, to Wolverhampton, but Hwang Hee-chan is more at home in the West Midlands. Five times Wolves have participated in the Premier League at Molineux this season, and five times the popular forward has scored. After having already forfeited a harshly awarded penalty, he delivered a dramatic equalizer against Newcastle on Saturday. The 27-year-old's return to six goals in Wolves' first ten games is the best for the club in the top flight since legendary striker Derek Dougan 50 years ago. Since suffering from injuries, he's demonstrating why he borrowed £14 million from Leipzig at the start of last year.

JOE BERNSTEIN AT MOLINEUX: Hwang Hee-Chan was consistent in scoring in every home game this season, but the Wolves were fuelled by a sense of injustice to fight back for a draw. Callum Wilson's tense finish for Newcastle was called off by Mario Lemina's first attempt for Wolves, but the Wolves were left trembling by a contentious penalty converted by Wilson on the stroke of halftime. Fabian Schar fell when Hwang tried to clear the field, but VAR took an age before you sent referee Anthony Taylor to the monitor to check his penalty decision.

Fabian Schar collapsed as Hwang attempted to clear the ball, but VAR took an age to inform referee Anthony Taylor that the penalty decision was made.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT MOLINEUX: Aston Villa had the opportunity to win their fourth straight league victory, but they were incredibly grateful to summer signing Pau Torres for giving them a point at Wolves. Unai Emery's side leveled at Molineux just moments after Hwang Hee-Chan opened the scoring Hwang, who scored the winner against Manchester City last time out, gave Wolves the lead with his fifth goal of the season.
