The striker superbly flicked on an Emmanuel Agbadou long ball to set up Munetsi, who smashed the ball into the top corner and rescued Wolves a point against Brentford on the final day.

It was Munetsi's second goal since signing on deadline day of the winter transfer window and he was full of praise for Larsen after the pair have struck up a useful partnership.

"Larsen has been very important and I think when I play closer to him, it's much easier for me to get the second balls and to create chances from there," Munetsi said.

"As soon as it bounced, you have the feeling that you hit it very well. This is something that is special.

"What a way to finish at home, considering the couple of results we've been having that were not really good.

"So we really tried to get a win and to finish also on a high.

"As soon as Agbadou hit the ball to Larsen, it's something that we were practising these couple of weeks.

"He won the first ball and immediately I was already running behind.

"I have also scored before a couple of goals like this. Obviously, this is something that the supporters will be eager to see more from me because of the chances I've had in a couple of games before.

"So I think this is for them and finishing on a high, especially at home."

When asked how the strike ranks in his career goals, Munetsi added: "I think the best is always the last one."

Meanwhile, Munetsi was keen to highlight why Tom King deserved his Wolves and Premier League debut.

The goalkeeper came on in the 91st minute as a reward for his impact behind the scenes.

Munetsi said: “Even on the training pitch, Kingy is always one of the first guys to arrive there. He's always positive, he's always giving guys encouragement, even when he talks before the game, during and after, he’s somebody that is really important.

“Obviously, people don't really see it on the outside, but I think he deserves to get the game time and I think the manager also trusts him a lot, so I think that's why he put him in.”
