Sunday Recap

Jota opened the scoring for Wolves after 17 minutes with his second goal in as many games.

The winger found himself in acres of space when heย escaped the attentions of Jamaal Lascelles to control Helder Costa's ball and fire past Martin Dubravka from close range.

The home side grabbed an equaliser just six minutes later when Salomonย Rondon, moments after he had crashed a free-kick onto the crossbar, put the ball back into the box and Perez guided it past Rui Patricio.

Rondon is a key figure in the Magpies' attack, as OptaJoe illustrated:

Newcastle were reduced to 10 men in the 57th minute. Yedlin, who replaced Federico Fernandez in the hosts' back three at the break after the latter made way for Javier Manquillo, pulled back Jota with the winger through on goal.

Craig Hope of the Daily Mail felt it was the correct decision by referee Mike Dean to send him off:

The hosts looked to have held on for a point asย Raul Jimenez rattled the bar after a rapid break andย Dubravka denied Doherty with a good save.

However, Doherty was on hand to head home a rebound from a Jota shot deep into injury time to hand Wolves the victory.
