Aymeric Laporte saved Manchester City from embarrassment after they came from 1-0 down to earn a point at newly-promoted Wolves this afternoon.
Wolves took the lead after Boly handled Joao Moutinho’s cross into corner, there was no complaints from City and it hadn’t been spotted by the officials.
City equalised as Laporte buried a powerful header into the back of the net, before Aguero hit the crossbar with a free-kick in the last minute of stoppage time.
It’s all over at Molineux. The visitors come from behind to earn a point through Aymeric Laporte after Willy Boly had given Wolves a second-half lead. Great game, great Wolves performance. #WOLMCI
