Match Recap: Arsenal’s Lead Slips Late
Arsenal surged ahead early, with Bukayo Saka scoring in the fifth minute and Piero Hincapie doubling the advantage. Wolves fought back through Hugo Bueno’s stunning 61st-minute strike, halving the deficit.
The drama peaked in the 94th minute when teenage debutant Tom Edozie smashed home a rebound after his initial shot deflected off Riccardo Calafiori, securing a point for the relegation-threatened hosts.
This result marks Arsenal’s second consecutive Premier League draw, leaving them five points clear of Manchester City, who hold a game in hand and face Newcastle next.
Wolves’ Social Media Jab at ‘Game Management’
Wolves’ social media team released an 80-second TikTok compilation labeled ‘Game Management,’ highlighting moments of perceived Arsenal delays.
The video opens with Gabriel Martinelli taunting the crowd by displaying a 2-1 scoreline with his fingers during a prolonged corner kick, captioned ‘confident are we?’ It continues with clips of Gabriel Magalhaes and Leandro Trossard staying down injured before culminating in Edozie’s equalizer and Wolves’ celebrations.
Post-Match Tensions Boil Over
Tensions erupted at full time when Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus shoved Wolves defender Mosquera, igniting a pitch-side scuffle involving players from both sides.
Former Arsenal striker Alan Smith, speaking on Sky Sports, described the incident as evidence that the Gunners had “lost their composure” and appeared “rattled” amid intensifying pressure from Manchester City in the title race.
