Wolverhampton Wanderers beat Burnley 2-1 in the Championship on Friday night at Turf Moor, Sky Sports and BBC Sport reported. Jamie Vardy gave Burnley the lead, but Wolves scored twice after Burnley errors, Sky Sports and BBC Sport reported.

Vardy, 39, scored in the 20th minute, BBC Sport reported. It was his first goal in English football since May 18, 2025, when he scored his 200th and final goal for Leicester, Sky Sports reported.

Wolves tied it before halftime. Kyle Walker lost the ball near his own box, and Fer Lopez scored in the 39th minute, Sky Sports and BBC Sport reported. Tawanda Chirewa then scored the winner in the 72nd minute, moments after coming on as a substitute, BBC Sport reported. A mistake by Burnley defender Igor Julio, whom Sky Sports calls Igor, set up the goal, Sky Sports and BBC Sport reported.

Burnley have now gone 21 home league games without a win, Sky Sports and BBC Sport reported. Sky Sports said they have lost 11 of those games and drawn 10. The win lifted Wolves to sixth, Sky Sports reported.

"Then we give two goals away. You can talk about match plans and tactics, but if we concede two goals like this, by individual mistakes, it's difficult to win games," Burnley manager Nicky Hayen said, according to Sky Sports.

"I'm happy with the performance. I think we deserved to win," Wolves boss Cesar Peixoto said, according to Sky Sports.

"It was an amazing feeling to help the team. I've been waiting for my moment and today I've helped the team to win," Chirewa said in a Sky Sports interview, according to BBC Sport.

What we know: Wolves won 2-1 at Burnley after Vardy's opener, and Burnley's home league winless run reached 21 games.
What we don't: Whether the result will change the pressure on Hayen, who BBC Sport says is under growing pressure.
