Six matches after being parachuted in to save West Brom, Sam Allardyce has finally presided over a victory – and a particularly sweet one at that. Matheus Pereira scored two penalties either side of a headed goal by Semi Ajayi as West Brom upset their local rivals with a display of opportunism, spirit and relative defensive rigour. Wolves, though, have mostly themselves to blame. They have lost six of their last nine league matches and look no closer to solving problems that have emerged at both ends of the pitch.
