Watch: Wolves' Ruben Neves Scores Amazing 30-Yard Volley

The stunning kick puts Wolverhampton closer to a Premier League promotion.

Ruben Neves might have just sealed the deal for the Wolverhampton Wanderers' promotion to the Premier League with his jaw-dropping 30-yard volley.

Five minutes into the second half of the game, the 21-year-old Neves chested the ball to himself after a clearance attempt before kicking a stunning, looping volley to the top corner of the net.

Fans erupted over Neves's feat.

The Portuguese midfielder came through Porto's Dragon Force academy, but he left over the 2017 summer transfer window for a reported record £15.8m to join Wolves. 

Wolves beat Derby County 2-0 on Wednesday and are now only two points away from returning to the Premier League. They can gain the promotion by beating Birmingham City on Sunday or earlier if second-place Fulham loses to Brentford on Saturday.
