Wolves And Crystal Palace End In 2-2 Draw As Pressure Mounts On Gary O'Neil

In a thrilling match, Wolves drew 2-2 with Crystal Palace, leaving them winless this season. The result adds pressure on head coach Gary O'Neil as they remain at the bottom of the Premier League.

Wolves' quest for their first Premier League victory of the season continues after a thrilling 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace. Trevoh Chalobah initially put Palace in front, capitalising on Jorgen Strand Larsen's misdirected header from Will Hughes' cross. However, Chalobah's missed interception allowed Matheus Cunha to set up Larsen's equaliser in the 67th minute. Wolves then took the lead five minutes later through Joao Gomes, who scored following Goncalo Guedes' impressive play.Despite Wolves' efforts, Palace captain Marc Guehi denied them a crucial win. Guehi scored at the back post after Daniel Munoz flicked on a corner, maintaining Palace's four-point lead over Wolves, who sit in 17th place. In stoppage time, Jean-Phillipe Mateta thought he had secured victory for Palace, but his goal was disallowed due to Munoz's foul on Jose Sa. This result leaves Wolves and their manager Gary O'Neil still searching for their first win.Following Southampton's victory over Everton earlier that day, Wolves remain one of only two teams without a win this Premier League season, alongside Ipswich Town. This marks just the third time in their history that they have failed to secure a win in their first ten league matches, previously occurring in the 1926-27 and 1983-84 seasons. O'Neil's team is now winless in 13 league games dating back to last season.
