Trevor Chalobah's early goal energized the crowd, leading to chants against Wolves manager Gary O'Neil, but Jorgen Strand Larsen and Joao Gomes later scored to turn the tide in the game. Marc Guehi eventually equalized for Oliver Glasner's Palace in a thrilling and chaotic match.

Jean-Philippe Mateta thought he had won it in stoppage time only for a foul to be given against Jose Sa nevertheless. The result leaves O'Neil's Wolves bottom on three points, four behind Palace who are just two points above the relegation zone themselves.

Glasner's side had the better chances with Wolves, still winless in the Premier League this season and having lost every previous home game, looking bereft of confidence. But the points were shared to leave both teams still perilously placed in the table.

How wild game played out

Palace were without Eberechi Eze following his injury midweek but still created enough to lead at the interval, seeing Will Hughes and Daichi Kamada go close before Chalobah squandered the best opening - even contriving to block the follow-up shot.

Pablo Sarabia, making his first Premier League start of the season, wasted Wolves' clearest opportunity of the first half, dallying long enough when through to allow Dean Henderson to claw the ball from his feet. It was a tense atmosphere, Molineux anxious.

But the game exploded to life following Chalobah's impressive finish on the angle, it becoming a wild affair following O'Neil's triple substitution that left Wolves exposed but committed to chasing goals. They found two but could not calm it down to hold on.
