Gareth Ainsworth’s side still sit bottom of the Championship table, sitting 10 points away from safety. While there is still a lot of work to be done, striker Uche Ikpeazu has said he is hoping to win can help them kick on in their efforts to pull off a great escape.
Speaking to the club’s official website, he said:
“I hate losing and so does the team. Everyone has been burning to win a game and it’s been tough. I care so much and it hurts me to lose. It’s a great win but we’ve got work to do – I’m excited.
“I’m happy for the players as well because they work so hard and this is the most honest group of boys I’ve ever played with. It’s a win, and we need to kick on now.”
