John Stones crushed Wolves’ hopes of securing a point with a late winner at Molineux, leaving Gary O’Neil heartbroken as Manchester City claimed victory in the dying moments of the game.
Wolves had taken the lead with a goal from Jorgen Strand Larsen in the first half, but City responded with goals from Josko Gvardiol and John Stones to secure the win.
Stones’ goal, which initially appeared to be offside, was allowed to stand after VAR intervention. The decision sparked controversy as it broke Wolves’ hearts and denied them a valuable point.
The Premier League provided an explanation for the decision, stating that Bernardo Silva’s presence did not affect the goalkeeper’s line of vision, leading to the goal being awarded.
Despite Wolves’ valiant efforts, they were unable to prevent City from claiming victory in the final moments of the game. The VAR decision will undoubtedly be a point of contention, as it leaves Wolves at the bottom of the Premier League table without a single point to their name.
