Nuno delighted with Wolves display after FA Cup draw with Swansea

An entertaining clash at Molineux ended goalless and both teams were reduced to 10 men, with Ruben Vinagre and Leroy Fer seeing red.

Wolves created several chances including a couple for debutant Rafa Mir who came on as a late substitute.

Morgan Gibbs-White, making his first appearance of the season, also impressed but was sacrificed just before half time after Vinagre's sending off.

Nuno said: "I'm happy and pleased with the performance of the team, really happy, individually and as a team.

"We were the better team on the pitch, deserved the win, created good chances, played good football.

"With one man less we kept the shape and then when they had 10 men we were the better team.

"The team played really well. There were individual answers of players like Morgan, like Rafa, players that were without playing for a long time.

"That means we are working really good and that's what is important.

"Then we have to adapt and find solutions. I think we controlled the game even with 10 men.

"Of course we had less of the ball but Swansea didn't create enough. I'm sorry for the result, not for the performance.

"I think we would naturally win the game (with 11 men) because we were better than them."

Does it bode well that Wolves again competed with a Premier League team, as they did against Southampton and Manchester City in the Carabao Cup?

"It means that you're better than your opponent, it doesn't matter if it's a Championship team, a League One team, a Champions League team, it doesn't matter," Nuno said.

"It's about putting inside the pitch what you think. Sometimes you have to adapt but you never change – and the desire to win is what we showed today, as a squad.

"A lot of players came in and gave the same answers. This is what we want."

And on the red cards, Nuno added: "I agree with both situations on both red cards."
