Arsenal 2-2 Wolves: Raya error costs Gunners as late Edozie equaliser
Arsenal slipped up in the Premier League title race as Wolves fought back for a 2-2 draw at Molineux. Bukayo Saka headed the Gunners ahead inside the opening five minutes and Piero Hincapie doubled the lead shortly after half-time. Wolves were hauled back into the game when Hugo Bueno curled in a stunning long-range strike, making the final 20 minutes tense.
The contest turned dramatically late on when David Raya spilled a cross, presenting Tom Edozie with a chance that ricocheted off Riccardo Calafiori and into the net. The draw denied Arsenal the opportunity to extend their lead over Manchester City; Declan Rice’s early cross set up Saka’s opener, but the visitors struggled for consistent cutting edge for much of the first half.
Hincapie’s finish had briefly appeared to have sealed the points. Post-match assessments singled out Saka and Hincapie among the positives, while Raya’s late mistake was described as calamitous.
