<b>Full-time: Wolves 2-5 Manchester City</b>
- 90'
It's cleared.
- 90'
One last corner for City, in the dying seconds.
- 90'
Side-netting! Kolarov arrives at the back stick and slaps the ball at the netting. He probably should have crossed, the greedy sod.
- 90'
Commentator on television currently reading out players who have not featured for City tonight. Scary list that. And it's Halloween.
- 90'
Wolves pushing for a consolation, but Toure hangs out a big leg to dispossess Hunt.
- 89'
It's been well contested too, both sets of players up for it. Meanwhile, there will be four minutes of added time.
- 88'
It's been a fun game this one, unless you are a Wolves fan, I guess. But then, even if you are a Wolves fan, at least there's been goals. Seven of them. Count them. Sevent.
- 87'
Johnson just went down in the box. He seemed a little too keen to go down, flopping over like an electrocuted fish. Seen 'em given though.
- 86'
City still pinging it about sweetly. The boy Denis Suarez looks sharp.
- 85'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Milner is on for Razak, who has impressed me.
- 84'
O'Hara executes a silky little turn then his a pop from range with his right foot. The keeper springs to his right and parries away. Wolves have matched City for shots on goal. That is no surprise.
- 83'
De Vries has had an appalling match, in truth. He just then fumbled the ball despite having it in his hands, then gave it to a defender who had a striker breathing down his neck.
- 82'
Hammill joins the list of players to shoot from a crazy distance. The fans voice their displeasure.
- 81'
O'Hara just had a vicious shot at goal which stung the palms over the keeper. Wolves have put a shift in, just been undone by City's quality. Their strength in depth is absurd.
- 80'
It's too deep. The ball harmlessly floats over everyone and out for a goal kick. Meanwhile, the television commentary team praise the fans for not leaving yet. Yer, that merits praise. Well done chaps.
- 79'
Corner to Wolves...
- 79'
It is worth noting that City goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon is 6ft 8in. That's frickin' massive.
- 78'
Razak limping off. That might be his night over.
- 77'
Razak down with cramp. The boy looks in agony.
- 76'
Now it's City's turn to cheer each pass. In other news, Savic has settled down after a David Luiz-esque start to this game.
- 75'
Ward smashes in a cross from the right but the ball is cleared at the near post. Dangerous delivery, that one.
- 74'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Scapuzzi off for Rekik.
- 73'
Wolves fans now cheering each pass. At least they are having fun.
