English Premier League

Aston Villa 2 – 3 Wolves

Ruben Neves scored deep into stoppage time as Wolves came from 2-0 down to secure an incredible win in an extraordinary West Midlands derby.

Wolves looked down and out when John McGinn added to Danny Ings’ opener to give Villa a two-goal cushion midway through the second half.

But in an incredible final 10 minutes, the Wolves scored three times to seal a third straight Premier League win.

Romain Saiss reduced the deficit from inside the six-yard area, then Conor Coady bundled in an 85th-minute equaliser after Max Kilman had headed against the bar.

Neves struck in the fifth minute of stoppage time when his free-kick took a deflection on its way past Emiliano Martinez to complete an astonishing comeback.
