Oskar Buur Rasmussen was clearly delighted with his debut performance against Hull City on Tuesday evening. Wolves were looking at the prospect of a 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Hull, but they managed to settle for a share of the spoils after an impressive header from Rasmussen seven minutes from time.

Speaking after the game, the Danish right-back was pleased to have made his Championship debut with his only previous taste of first-team action coming in the League Cup against Bristol Rovers, he said: “It was a really big moment for me - to get my debut, to score and goal and to help the team, so I'm very happy. I'm used to playing for the under-23s in front of maybe a couple of hundred people, so to be here and see all the fans was great. I was a bit nervous, because when you're on the bench you can see and hear the entire crowd, but when I got onto the pitch I was able to block it out and just focus on the game.”

Despite the headline-grabbing goal, the 20-year-old remains fairly modest about his future plans with the west Midlands outfit. The right-sided defender has been plying his trade for the Under-23s over the course of the season, and he is hoping to continue with a similar progress in order to earn more opportunities under manager Nuno Espirito Santo.

With the stalemate, the Wolves have a six-point lead between themselves and Cardiff City, who have a game in hand. More so, they have a comfortable 11-point advantage over third-placed Fulham, and a maximum of three wins would assure them automatic promotion in the remaining six games. Wolves have a couple of key fixtures against Cardiff City and Derby County to come, but after that, they have matches against Birmingham City, Bolton Wanderers, Sunderland, and Sheffield Wednesday – all of whom are in the bottom half of the table.
