Wolves faced disappointment as they fell to a late defeat against Manchester City at Molineux.
Manager Gary O’Neil witnessed his team put up a strong fight against the reigning champions throughout the match, coming close to securing a valuable point. Despite goals from Jorgen Strand Larsen and Josko Gvardiol maintaining a 1-1 scoreline for most of the game, a controversial last-minute goal by John Stones decided the outcome.
The tension escalated at Molineux when the goal, initially ruled out for offside, was eventually given following a VAR review. Wolves fans expressed their displeasure as the away supporters celebrated wildly.
Former Wolves player Matheus Nunes, now with Man City, provoked the home crowd further by taunting them on social media after the match. This added fuel to the fire as the fans voiced their frustrations throughout the game, especially when Nunes entered as a substitute.
Despite the defeat, Wolves’ performance against City showed promise and resilience, providing a solid foundation for improvement moving forward. The team’s ability to compete with the league’s top sides indicates potential for a turnaround in their season trajectory.
