End of 2nd Half
FULL-TIME!
The points are shared at Villa Park. The game improved after a low-key first half and it could have gone either way at the death
90+4'
Wolves threaten at the death but Targett does well to head clear.
90+2'
CHANCE! Mings is back on his feet as Barkley whips the corner in, the ball drops to Watkins who forces a save from Rui Patricio and Konsa shoots the rebound wide.
90+1'
There will be more than three minutes as Mings has gone down on the halfway line flexing his left knee. When play resumes, Villa will have a corner.
90'
THREE minutes of added time at Villa Park. Journalists with their fingers on the send button are now counting down the seconds.
87'
Neto shoots direct on target from a free kick but it goes straight down the throat of Martinez.
83'
SUB! Villa bring on Jacob Ramsey for Traore. He limps off ater taking a blow a few minutes earlier.

WHAT A SAVE! From the free kick, Barkley gives the ball away on the edge of his own box. Coady meets the ball as it is swept goalwards and Martinez somehow makes the save. It was brilliant.
76'
Elhomady gives away a needless free kick. With the quality of Wolves that could be a mistake.
69'
Ruben Neves lets fly from the best part of 30 yards from a free-kick. He turned away with a look on his face that it was close. It was not, miles over.
65'
Adama Traore is not getting a lot of love on social media at the moment. He has been on the periphery so far and he just looks to be lacking confidence. He picks the ball up, on the rare occasions he offers himself, and his first instinct is not to drive forward.
61'
SUB! Ross Barkley is coming on for Sanson who lasts 61 minutes on his first start for the club.

59'
To be fair, the ball did come quickly to Saiss from Coady's header but he really should have scored.
57'
WHAT A MISS! A clever corner from Wolves. Neto picks out Coady who heads against the post. The ball comes out to Saiss who scoops it over from a yard out. Not quite sure how he missed
55'
Let's be honest, admin. It would have been bang average for him.
54'
Ruben Neves is a master at the volley and as the ball drops to him on the edge of the box Villa probably feared the worst, but although he made good contact the effort lacked direction. Wolves have done more in eight minutes of the second half than they did in the whole of the first.
50'
CHANCE! Neto has been the bright spark for Wolves and he breaks at pace from the corner, exposes Targett and fires a shot on goal that is save by Martinez. Much more like it from the visitors.
49'
Watkins dangerous again. He cuts inside Coady, but Saiss gets round on the cover to make a telling block. Good defending
