Willy Boly scored a 93rd-minute winner for Wolves as they grabbed their first Europa League victory, beating Besiktas 1-0 in Istanbul
Both sides lost their opening Group K games two weeks ago and have won just one league match so far domestically, and it showed in a game that lacked finishing quality
But ultimately, Wolves put in a classic away performance, keeping Besiktas at bay for much of the game before scoring a late winner as Boly turned the ball home late on
Wolves move off the bottom of Group K and into third, one point behind Braga and Slovan Bratislava, who drew in Group K's other game on Thursday
 Besiktas are now in fourth as their dismal start to the season continues
The first half was not blessed with chances, and it took until the 28th minute for either side to test the goalkeepers
 It was Liverpool loanee Loris Karius who got down low to make a save, keeping out a Pedro Neto cross that took a nick off Domagoj Vida on the way through
Not long after, Jeremain Lens twisted and turned past Jonny on the right before firing in a cross, but Caner Erkin sent it firing well over the crossbar
Besiktas piled on the pressure as the game headed towards the break, and Conor Coady almost scored a calamitous own-goal, but diverted a Besiktas corner onto the post
Dorukham Tokoz tried to net the rebound, but skied it over the crossbar
Willy Boly showed some wonderful defending with a minute to play as he stopped Mehmet Umut Nayir from converting a fizzing Erkin cross, allowing Rui Patricio to pounce on the loose ball
Besiktas had two early second half efforts to test Wolves' resolve
 The first was a wonderful, curling shot from Erkin that landed into the hands of Patricio
Boly then showed more superb defensive qualities as he got ahead of Nayir to clear a Lens cross after the former Sunderland forward made a sensational forward run
Wolves had their best effort of the second half in the 55th minute
 Joao Moutinho delivered a wonderful free kick, but Raul Jimenez could only direct his header over the crossbar
Karius made a wonderful save from a long-range 12 minutes later, after a curling effort from Romain Saiss as Wolves enjoyed a good spell in attack
The visitors turned up the pressure as they searched for a winner, and had a goal ruled out for offside in the 89th minute
Karius saved Leander Dendoncker's initial shot but Saiss was waiting at the near post to poke the ball home - but the linesman's flag was raised
However, replays showed he was onside - but with no VAR in the Europa League group stages - the goal could not be reviewed
Wolves finally made the breakthrough in the third minute of four added on
 Ruben Neves floated a wonderful ball over the top and picked out an unmarked Boly, who took a touch before turning and firing past Karius and sealing a first Europa League win for the Premier League side
Wolves manager  said: "It was good
 In the end we were happy
 I think the boys worked very hard
 Through all the game we were competitive, believing until the end and we got this moment of Boly that gave us a good victory in a tough, tough stadium
 Besiktas are a good team, they pushed us, but we were organised, so I'm happy for the boys
"We have a lot of things to improve
 OK, we won, but the performance must be better
 It's about how we do our things, how we play, how we grow, all these things
 How the players did, why some of them didn't perform so well, we must find the why, this is my obsession
"They [the players] are already recovering because Sunday we play
 It was two minutes of celebration only
 We are already preparing for the next one
 We have a long season, Thursday, Sunday, it doesn't stop
"Wolves had to defend well in Istanbul and Boly was a huge part of that
 On more than one occasion, he got ahead of the Besiktas dangermen to cut out passes and made some wonderful blocks
 He also set off attacks from the back and ultimately, he won it for Wolves
It was a well-taken goal for a defender, taking a great touch before slotting home
 It wasn't his only chance in the game either, having headed a glorious chance just wide earlier on
 But he scored when it mattered and is the hero of the hour
Next up for Wolves is a trip to Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday ahead of the international break
 Their next Europa League outing will be on Thursday 24 October as they travel to Slovan Bratislava in Slovakia, which is due to be played behind closed doors
Besiktas will also take on Alanyaspor in the Turkish Super Lig on Sunday before hosting Braga in their next Europa League game
