Thanks for joining me here on Tribe as Matheus Cunha’s injury-time leveller saw Wolves recover from two goals down to earn a dramatic draw at Brighton this afternoon; I hope you’ve enjoyed our coverage; I’ve been Rory Morrow and I look forward to seeing you again soon for another live text commentary!
Up Next - Brighton host Liverpool here for a fourth round League Cup tie on Wednesday night before travelling to Anfield to face The Reds in the league next Saturday afternoon. Wolves, meanwhile, have seven days to prepare for the visit of Crystal Palace’s in next Saturday’s teatime match.
Wolves, meanwhile, will be utterly elated. Having been on the receiving end of injury time last weekend, conceding late to Manchester City, they get a jolt of euphoria with today's late comeback, earning only their second point of this Premier League season. Like so many games this campaign, they were dogged throughout but fell behind to well-worked, and clinically taken, Brighton goals. Yet, Wolves kept on going. Sarabia, a half-time substitute, had a huge difference, adding quality to their attacks. Cunha's lazor-cool finish at the death sparked mad celebrations as Wolves take a valuable, morale-lifting point, in dramatic circumstances.
Brighton, who controlled large spells of the match today, will be gutted to not have seen out that winning position. Especially having withheld Wolves' pressure before grabbing a second goal. On the plus side, Welbeck was, again, excellent and took his goal very well. Ferguson and Lamptey were both lively off the bench, combining brilliantly for the second goal. By the end, though, Brighton really missed the experience of their captain, Dunk, who was ruled out late on through injury. This'll be a sickener but they remain with only one league defeat all season and will look to learn lessons from this afternoon.
LATE, LATE DRAMA SEES WOLVES CLAIM A POINT - Wow. What an ending at the Amex Stadium! Trailing by two goals with only five minutes remaining, Wolves rally late on to claim a share of the spoils, Matheus Cunha levelling in the third minute of injury time. In an entertaining game, Brighton led on the stroke of half-time when Welbeck slotted in. His replacement, Ferguson, looked to have sealed the win when he added a second in the eighty-fifth minute. Wolves, however, had other intentions. They halved the deficit three minutes later when Ait-Nouri poked home after a scramble inside the six-yard box. Then, Cunha completed the comeback with an ice-cool finish to the bottom-left corner which earns them only their second point of the Premier League season so far! Wolves remain winless but will be delighted with a point today, in the circumstances. Brighton will feel this is one they let slip.

CUNHA LEVELS LATE ON FOR WOLVES - Late, late drama at the Amex Stadium as Wolves level in injury time! Doyle, deep inside his own half, swings the ball forward down the right. Cunha, in acres of room, controls the ball and cuts inside, into the penalty area. Cunha, ten yards out, goes for goal and finds the bottom left-hand corner, with a deflection off van Hecke on the way through, to draw the visitors back on level terms!
