Wolves vs Man City LIVE: Premier League score updates as Jorgen Strand Larsen’s early goal shocks champions

‘Bring me the bill’: Pep Guardiola makes gesture to Man City fans

Manchester City travel to Wolves in the early Sunday kick-off in the Premier League. Pep Guardiola’s side will hope to keep pace in the title race, with Liverpool topping the table before the international break.

Gary O’Neill’s team will be desperate for a result to move away from their place at the bottom of the table, after just one point from seven games so far. And a 2-1 win last season against the champions provides hope of another upset here.

Guardiola admitted “part of me is leaving” after news that sporting director Txiki Begiristain will depart the club after the current campaign, while also playing down reports of negotiations with the FA over the England job before Thomas Tuchel was appointed.

The champions are sweating on the fitness of Kevin De Bruyne and could go top before Liverpool face Chelsea in the late kick-off.

Follow live updates from the Premier League clash below as Wolves host Man City:

Wolves 1-0 Man City

Two City players are lining up for the free-kick, with Dias and Stones discussing a tactic. It’s Savinho to take, but he hits the wall. From the rebound, Doku can’t create the space to get a shot through.

City with possession near the Wolves box again.

Wolves 1-0 Man City

Toti is played into plenty of trouble on the edge of his own box and he’s dispossessed by Savinho, with the Brazilian winning a free-kick as the Wolves man was forced to drag him down.

Wolves 1-0 Man City

Savinho’s dinked ball in briefly looks dangerous but it’s eventually cleared. Strand Larsen is down and receiving treatment, but he’ll be okay to carry on.

Wolves 1-0 Man City

CHANCE! A brilliant save from Sa.

The pass is fizzed in to Gundogan and he flicks it on to Bernardo in the box. His effort is a good one, forcing Sa to stretch low to his right to get a strong hand to it.

Plenty of noise at the Molineux now.

GOAL! Wolves 1-0 Man City

GOAL! Out of nowhere for the home side!

City are pressing Wolves high but Ait-Nouri manages to escape the challenge in his own half. Wolves work it to the opposite wing and Semedo drives towards the box before playing an early cross.

It’s right in the corridor between the ‘keeper and defenders and it goes all the way across to Strand Larsen, who bundles it in!

More sustained possession from City and it ends with Doku exchanging passes with Gundogan to make some space in the box, before the Belgian blazes a shot over the bar.

Wolves 0-0 Man City

Semedo eventually clears the corner, though City have the ball again straight away. Plenty of patient build-up, with Lewis stepping into midfield.

Wolves 0-0 Man City

Savinho beats Ait-Nouri too easily down the right but his cross is cleared. City come again and Doku feeds in Haaland, though the Norwegian is forced to go backwards before Savinho then wins a corner.

Wolves 0-0 Man City

Better from both sides as they each string a few passes together. Wolves try to break forward but Gvardiol is equal to Semedo in the foot race.

Wolves 0-0 Man City

End-to-end at the beginning, though not in term of attacking. Both sides have lumped the ball up the field a couple of times each as they look to settle.
