Wolverhampton lost to Newcastle (1:2) in the 4th round of the English Premier League.

Brazilian newcomer Andre Wolves started the match from the first minute. And the debut of the supporting midfielder turned out to be an impactful one.

Details: Andre accurately completed all of his 40 passes before being substituted in the match against Newcastle. That's the most assists without a single mistake in history (since 2003-04) for a player making his first Premier League start.

Recall: Andre joined Wolves in August. Wolves paid for the Brazilian 22 million euros. The Brazilian made his debut for the new team last round, coming on as a substitute for 4 minutes.

The 23-year-old footballer is a pupil of Fluminense, for which he previously played in his homeland.
