What were the key moments in the Wolves vs Manchester City match?

Joleon Lescott 0:05
For Ruben Neves. Moutinho.
Jamie Carragher 0:09
That's inviting and it's in! Willy Bally got the final touch! That's what Gündoğan looks to do when he's powered home. Aymeric Laporte, the man to level it up for Manchester City. Wolves 1, Manchester City 1.

Delight for Wolves as they hold the Premier League champions to a one-all draw here at Molineux this afternoon. And Manchester City, well, ahead in pretty much all the statistics apart from the one that counts here at Molineux. 18 attempts, six of them on target, 71% possession and 39 touches in the opposition box. They've only got one goal, though, in this. We'll get the thoughts later on of Gideon Lescott, Mick McCarthy and Jamie Carragher. But delight for Wolves and for the Wolves players We can hear now from club captain Connor Cody and from the man with the assist for Willy Bolli's goal, Joao Moutinho, there with Greg Whelan. Connor, Joao, very well done indeed. Connor, how does that feel, going toe-to-toe with Manchester City and getting a point?
Mick McCarthy 1:10
Oh, it was good, it was good, that's what we've got to do in this division, we've got to play like that, we've got to play well, they're a fantastic side, they really are, they move the ball fantastically well, but we stuck to what we wanted to do, we want to show that we can play, and we've done that today, and we had a few chances as well, so I think our draw was a fair result in the end, really.
Unknown 1:23
Gerard, did you feel you might even have won it there right at the end? Sorry? Did you feel that you might have even won the game, you had chances right at the end?
Connor Cody 1:29
Yeah, we have chances, but Manchester City have chances too, but I think we play very well as a team with confidence. That's the most important. We put all together and do a great job today. I think it's a good result. Maybe we can score one or two more, but City have a very good team and they have opportunities too.

How did Wolves manage to hold Manchester City to a draw?

Unknown 1:51
What was your game plan today? What was your approach in taking on this City's team?
Connor Cody 1:58
Our plan is to do what we do in the week. All the days we train so hard, 100% to play against big teams, and Manchester City is a big team, very good players, and be ourselves. I think that's what's happened here today. We'll be ourselves and do a great job today.
Unknown 2:20
Thank you. Connor, there was a touch of good fortune about your goal, replay showed that Willy Bolly clearly handled it on the way in, but when you look back, was it no more than you deserved?
Mick McCarthy 2:29
Yeah, I didn't know that, to be honest, I was back on the halfway line. No, I think it was, like I said, we had enough chances to score in the game itself as well, and I thought we deserved the goal in the end, no matter how it went in, we'll have to have a little look back at it, but it's a goal, and like I said, I think it was a fair result in the end, but I thought we were fantastic, we stuck to what we wanted to do and come away with a good point.
Unknown 2:45
How hard was it out there, coming up against their quality up front?
Mick McCarthy 2:48
They're a fantastic team, they won the Premier League last year, they're a huge football club, probably one of the best football clubs in the world right now, and we've had a go against them, that's what we wanted to do, we wanted to show how we play, we stick to the same game plan, everything's from our shoot, we like to be organised and in shape as much as possible, and we stuck to that today, which was very pleasing, and I thought we built on last week a little bit, we were good against Leicester, but it was disappointing not to win, so to get the point today is even better.
Unknown 3:09
Joel, just what does this performance, this result, tell people about how competitive Wolves can be in this league this season?
Connor Cody 3:16
I think in all the three games we showed that we can compete, we can play, we can win, whatever the team comes here or we go away. That's our team, we play 100% all the games and we can win.

What were the statistics that highlighted City's dominance despite the draw?

Connor Cody 3:33
We know we can win every game.
Unknown 3:36
Fine result, fine performance. Well done, guys.
Connor Cody 3:37
Thank you very much.
Unknown 3:40
Fine result, fine performance. Not one that's going to manage expectations, though, is it, Julian?
