Leeds come from two down to beat Wolves in thriller

Leeds produced a sensational comeback to win 3-2 against 10-man Wolves in a dramatic game at Molineux.

First-half goals from Jonny Otto and substitute Francisco Trincao had put Bruno Lage's side in control but that changed with Raul Jimenez's red card early in the second half.

Goals from Jack Harrison and Rodrigo drew Jesse Marsch's men level thanks to some hapless defending from the home side as panic engulfed Molineux.

The comeback was complete when Luke Ayling slammed in the winner in stoppage time to spark scenes of jubilation in the away end - and scuffles between the coaching staff.

There was still time for substitute goalkeeper Kristoffer Klaesson to save brilliantly to deny Trincao an equaliser and secure a result that moves Leeds seven points clear of the relegation zone.

What shape the Leeds squad is in is another matter.

Raphinha tested positive for Covid before the game, then Patrick Bamford, Diego Llorente, Mateusz Klich and Illan Meslier all had to leave the field because of injury.

Only the concussion substitution protocol allowed Leeds to keep 11 men on the pitch - something Wolves could not do after Jimenez's second yellow card.

Though Bruno Lage's side had already lost Ruben Neves to injury, that change actually helped - replacement Trincao setting up the first and scoring the second.

It was the loss of Jimenez, adjudged to have fouled Meslier when racing onto a loose ball, that turned the contest, giving a confidence-shot Leeds a route back into the game.

An experienced Wolves side caved under the pressure with Rayan Ait-Nouri erring for the first, Jose Sa caught out for the second and Willy Boly too tentative for the third.

The defeat leaves Wolves in eighth and with their European hopes fading.
