John Stones entrenched his cult hero status among Manchester City fans by snatching a last-gasp winner at Wolves and avoiding an embarrassing draw against the Premier League's weakest side.
Erling Haaland would have been licking his lips before kick off given his incredible record against Wolves but another Norwegian was the first to strike, Jorgen Strand Larsen netting in the seventh minute.
City struck back with a typically obscene long-range strike from Josko Gvardiol to add his collection of wonder goals. From then on the champions dominated the game and hemmed Wolves in but Gary O'Neil's strugglers put on a valiant defensive display.
But Stones finally broke their resolve with a priceless header, a month after his late late goal saved City against Arsenal. The goal went to a VAR review due to Bernardo Silva's positioning but the referee stood by his on-pitch decision. No one could argue that City deserved the three points overall but only the most heartless of souls couldn't feel sorry for Wolves, who have just one point from their eight games.
