Your support makes all the difference.Leander Dendoncker's late strike kept Wolves' European dreams alive after a 1-0 win over Fulham.
Watched by WWE wrestler Sin Cara, a friend of striker Raul Jimenez, Dendoncker landed the knockout blow against the doomed Cottagers.
Diogo Jota had earlier wasted three fine openings and Dendoncker hit the bar before his winner at Molineux.
Relegated Fulham were left to rue Aleksandar Mitrovic's second-half miss as they slipped to a 25th Premier League defeat of the campaign.
But the Cottagers did create some history when Harvey Elliott, aged 16 years and 30 days, became the Premier League's youngest ever player after coming on as a late substitute.
Wolves sit seventh ahead of next weekend's season finale which would book them a Europa League qualifying spot if Watford lose the FA Cup final to Manchester City.
Meanwhile, Marko Arnautovic scored his first goals since January as West Ham United swept aside Southampton 3-0.
The Austrian, whose form had deserted him since a lucrative move to China failed to materialise during the transfer window, found the net twice to sink the Saints.
Ryan Fredericks hit the third as West Ham secured their biggest home win of the season in their final outing at the London Stadium.
