Mount scored and was named man-of-the-match for Monday's win at Molineux.
Amorim said afterwards: "We played well most of the time. We should have a different score in the end.
"I'm pleased with the second half that we understood we had another opportunity."
On what he said at half-time: "It wasn't tactical. It was so clear we are dominating the games but not finishing the plays as we should do. We need to be better in the details. Trying to explain to the players we have 45 minutes to win the three points that are crucal for our life.
"It's important. We had some games against teams in better moments and had many shots. We need to improve the quality of the shots. We need to focus not just on scoring but protecting our goal."
On Mount's performance, he added: "It's not just the goal he scored, it's the way he plays the game - how he attacks, he defends, he understands his technical qualities.
"You don't need to have many touches. He's a really good player and works hard. He knows sometimes he needs to start on the bench."
On what moving into sixth place means, Amorim concluded: "Nothing. It's always the same feeling we should have more points. But that's in the past, let's focus on the future."
