Wolves lose final pre-season friendly ahead of Premier League season
Wolves lost their final pre-season game, going down 1-0 at Molineux to Spanish side Celta Vigo. Wolves were unable to find the net, a week before their Premier League campaign gets underway at home to Man City, with Pablo Duran's second half volley claiming victory for the visitors. In the opening 15 minutes, the visitors were most threatening, as Wolves' defence were creating their own trouble. Emmanuel Agbadou's poor pass led to a Celta break, and after Ferran Jutgla found space on edge of the box, but his shot was turned by Jose Sa's fingertip full stretch.

Against his former side, the forward squared a pass to fellow summer signing Jhon Arias inside the box who took a touch to create space before lashing an effort straight at Ionut Radu. Molineux burst into song on the 18th minute in honour of fallen Wolves hero Diogo Jota, who tragically died in July. Later, a lapse at the back allowed Rueda to bear down on goal with just Matt Doherty and Sa in his way, but the Irishman got in a block. Moments later, Toti had Sa back-pedalling as his header fooled the keeper and almost crossed the line but he was able to dive on it. Rueda was causing difficulties for Wolfe and Toti down the Celta right and it was his cross to the far post which looked to have created a goal as it passed over Sa's head on its way to Jutgla who was yards out from goal, but Doherty was able to put his head in where it hurts. Wolves began to show their teeth as the game approached half-time, with Ki-Jana Hoever putting in a good cross and his ball was heading towards Jorgen Strand Larsen, but Radu dived off his line to gather at the feet of the Norwegian. Moments later Wolfe curled a cross towards the far post and his fellow countryman but, with his back to goal, Strand Larsen was unable to trouble the keeper with his flicked header. The second half took a while to get going with both sides trying to create opportunities without really troubling the keepers. Hoever tried to find a gold shirt inside the box, but overhit his cross, before moments later, fresh on as a half-time sub for Wolfe, Hugo Bueno had a chance to stretch his legs down the left for Wolves, but his cross towards Strand Larsen was cut out by former Bournemouth keeper Radu. But just before the hour mark, their opposition opened the scoring. Fran Beltran found space and after floating a pass to Duran, who got between Agbadou and Doherty, he hit a sweet volley on the turn which Sa got a hand to, but not enough to stop the ball finding its way into the net. Wolves had an opportunity to equalise as Lopez raced away from three challenges before laying a pass into the path of Hoever who cut a cross back towards Arias on the edge of the box, but the pass was cut out with a sliding challenge. Agbadou almost headed Wolves level when he met a Jean-Ricner Bellegarde corner, but Radu got a strong hand to the ball to keep out the header. Bueno picked out Strand Larsen with a cross minutes later, but the striker could not get enough purchase on his header. Celta had a chance to go two ahead after Jones El-Abdellaoui pushed Bueno off as the pair raced towards the Wolves box, and after creating space he could only turn the ball wide of Sa's post. Wolves almost combined for an equaliser in the dying moments as Sasa Kalajdzic was played into space, and instead of going for goal, the Austrian tried to cut the ball back for Marshall Munetsi but he was crowded out.

Celta Vigo closer to a deal with Club Brugge for former Barcelona striker
Sacha Tavolieri has revealed that Celta Vigo are getting close to a deal with Club Brugge for the signing of striker Ferran Jutgla. The former Barcelona striker is expected to leave Belgium this season and a move to La Liga and Celta Vigo looks the most likely. According to Tavolieri, the clubs are still not in full agreement but the Spanish club are getting closer to what Club Brugge are looking for. The 26-year-old striker scored 14 goals in 54 games for the side this season, just one shy of his 15 goal best season for the club during the 2022/2023 campaign. Jutgla joined Club Brugge from Barcelona that season, where he had played nine games for the Catalan giants, scoring twice. Jutgla looks set to leave the side with 40 goals in 148 games, which includes a handful during successful Champions League campaigns. For Club, their striker situation appears more settled now with the recent contract renewal for young star Romeo Vermant. GBeNeFN | Ben Jackson

Club Brugge stun Atalanta as they progress to Champions League last 16
BERGAMO, Italy, Feb 18 (Reuters) - Teenager Chemsdine Talbi scored an early double as Club Brugge stormed into a three-goal lead before holding off a second-half onslaught for a 3-1 away win over Atalanta in their Champions League knockout phase playoff second-leg tie on Tuesday. Ferran Jutgla netted the visitors' other goal as Brugge stunned the Italian side with a 3-0 halftime lead, but they had to fight a desperate rearguard action in the second half as their hosts looked to conjure up an unlikely comeback. Ademola Lookman pulled one goal back for Atalanta but then had a penalty saved by veteran goalkeeper Simon Mignolet, who made several other important stops to stymie home hopes and see the Belgian side advance to the last 16 5-2 on aggregate. Atalanta's elimination added to a calamitous night for Italian football, following AC Milan's exit earlier when they were held to a 1-1 draw by visitors Feyenoord of the Netherlands and went out of the Champions League 2-1 on aggregate.

Atalanta v Club Brugge
Atalanta will aim to overturn a deficit on aggregate and secure passage to the Round of 16 of the Champions League when they welcome Club Brugge tonight. Atalanta looked set to continue their European run last week when they went to Jan Breydel Stadium to face Club Brugge. However, the Italian side found themselves trailing due to a Ferran Jutgla goal in the 15th minute. Mario Pasalic's equaliser came just before the break and the encounter was expected to finish in a stalemate but Gustaf Nilsson's added-time penalty strike gave the Belgians a first-leg advantage. Gian Piero Gasperini will hope to have the home atmosphere on his back when he rallies his troops at Gewiss Stadium tonight. Meanwhile, Club Brugge are set to face an attacking onslaught from Atalanta as they have a slender lead to defend. They squeezed through to the Champions League playoffs after finishing 24th in the group stages thanks to a favourable goal-difference over 25th-placed Dinamo Zagreb. Club Brugge stretched their unbeaten European home run to four consecutive games by securing a thrilling victory over La Dea. Nicky Hayen's side have progressed to the next round of European clashes when they have gained the first home-leg advantage in 14 of their 16 such situations. Here are the predicted line-ups for the match Atalanta (3-4-1-2): Patricio; Posch, Hien, Djimsiti; Bellanova, De Roon, Ederson, Zappacosta; Pasalic; De Ketelaere, Retegui. Club Brugge (4-2-3-1): Mignolet; Seys, Ordonez, Mechele, De Cuyper; Jashari, Oyedika; Talbi, Vanaken, Tzolis; Jutgla. | GIFN

Late penalty earns Brugge 2-1 home win over Atalanta
BRUGES, Belgium, Feb 12 (Reuters) - A stoppage-time penalty by substitute Gustaf Nilsson secured Club Brugge a 2-1 home win against Atalanta in the first leg of their Champions League knockout phase playoff on Wednesday. Ferran Jutgla gave a confident Brugge the lead after 15 minutes with a measured strike before Atalanta's Mario Pasalic levelled with a header just before halftime, netting from a lovely cross by Davide Zappacosta. But Brugge were awarded a penalty for Isak Hien's foul on Nilsson in injury time and the Swedish striker made no mistake in slotting home. Atalanta will host Brugge in the reverse fixture on Tuesday, with the winner of the tie facing Lille or Aston Villa in competition's last 16.
