Wolverhampton Wanderers beat Bournemouth 1-0 on Wednesday evening and Jonny Otto was one of many players to impress at Molineux. The 26-year-old was resilient at left-back, keeping Jack Stacey and David Brooks quiet while limiting Bournemouth’s right-hand side to only one accurate cross over 90 minutes.
