Wolves fans rage at 31-year-old after what he did in 2-1 defeat to Liverpool

Wolves fans were furious with Sam Johnstone for his role in Ibrahima Konate’s goal against Liverpool.

The Midlands club were defeated 2-1 at home against the Reds, with Konate’s first-half header and a Mohamed Salah penalty being the difference between the two sides.

The defeat continued Wolves’ winless start to the 2024-25 campaign, leaving Gary O’Neil’s team bottom of the league despite Rayan Ait-Nouri’s equaliser in the second half.

However, it was the 31-year-old goalkeeper that Wolves fans weren’t happy with in regards to the game’s opening goal.

The Liverpool defender won a header that snuck underneath Johnstone, leaving Wolves fans to believe he could have done better.

Johnstone had made a point-blank save earlier in the game against Luis Diaz, but his mistake proved to be costly.
