A football fan is fighting for his life after he suffered a serious head injury when he was attacked in the street following a match.
The Watford supporter was walking to the train station in Wolverhampton after watching his side draw 2-2 in the Championship on Saturday.
West Midlands Police said the 44-year-old had left Molineux stadium when he was attacked.
A spokesman said: "Detectives have launched an investigation after a Hertfordshire man received life-threatening injuries in an unprovoked assault in Wolverhampton yesterday.
"The 44-year-old was with a group of friends making their way to the train station to return home to Hemel Hempstead just after 5pm when they were attacked in Littles Lane."
Detective Sergeant Adam Keen said: "The group of friends were completely outnumbered and the victim suffered a severe head injury which has left him in a critical condition in hospital.
"His family have been informed and we are in the process of taking statements from witnesses and locating any CCTV which might have captured those responsible for the attack."
Watford Football Club said on their website: "The thoughts of everyone associated with Watford FC are with a Hornets' supporter - at yesterday's game - who is now critically ill after an unprovoked post-match attack."
Wolves' chief executive Jez Moxey said: "We are deeply saddened to hear of this incident and our thoughts go out to the supporter concerned and his family.
"As a club we deplore any violence in or around football matches and we will work closely with the relevant authorities to help bring the perpetrator, or perpetrators, to justice."

Disgusting and cowardly.
I hope he recovers soon and the perpetrators spend a long long time in jail.

When you go to away games it's great with the banter with the home crowd and the travelling all makes it part of the day but when this happens it's sick. Find the culprits and jail for long term. Wolves showed what they were last week.

NO FOOTBALL FAN SHOULD EVER GO TO A MATCH TO SUPPORT THEIR TEAM AND END UP BEING ATTACKED AND END UP IN HOSPITAL.
