Arsenal were left red-faced on Wednesday night as Wolves snatched a dramatic late equaliser at Molineux, turning what looked like a routine two-goal victory into a 2-2 draw.

The Gunners’ efforts to manage the game with clever time-wasting tactics backfired spectacularly, leaving both their players and fans stunned.

Social Media Roast: Wolves Take Aim

Not wasting a second, Wolves’ social media team seized the moment to mock Arsenal’s “dark arts” approach.

An 80-second TikTok clip labeled “game management” stitched together a series of moments where

Arsenal appeared to slow the game down.

The video opens with Gabriel Martinelli holding up two fingers to the Wolves crowd, subtly highlighting the 2-1 lead, captioned “confident are we?”

It then cuts to Gabriel Magalhaes and Leandro Trossard staying down following minor fouls, seemingly to waste time.

The clip ends with Tom Edozie’s 94th-minute strike and Wolves’ jubilation — a stinging reminder that Arsenal’s tactics ultimately failed.

Late Drama Changes the Title Race

Arsenal had looked comfortable after a blistering start.

Bukayo Saka opened the scoring inside five minutes, and Piero Hincapie doubled the lead, putting the Gunners in a prime position to extend their advantage over Manchester City.

A win would have put Arsenal seven points clear, but Wolves’ resilience turned the match on its head.

The warning came first from Hugo Bueno’s brilliant strike in the 61st minute, halving the deficit.

Then, in dramatic fashion, David Raya misjudged a cross in the box, leaving Edozie to hammer in a late equaliser, leaving Arsenal five points clear of City, who still have a game in hand.

Tempers Flare at Full-Time

Frustration boiled over at the final whistle.

A push from Gabriel Jesus sent Wolves’ Mosquera crashing to the ground, sparking a heated scuffle between both teams.

Video footage shows Jesus barge into Mosquera’s chest, highlighting Arsenal’s growing tension under the mounting pressure of the title race.

Former Arsenal striker Alan Smith told Sky Sports that the incident revealed the Gunners had “lost their composure” and appeared “rattled” as the battle with Manchester City intensifies.

What’s Next?

Arsenal now face the challenge of regaining momentum in the title race as Manchester City look to capitalize on their game in hand.

Wolves, meanwhile, can celebrate a morale-boosting point, proving that even the Premier League’s heavyweights aren’t invincible against the league’s struggling sides.

Fans will be watching eagerly to see if Arteta can refocus his squad and avoid similar slip-ups in crucial moments.

Summary

Arsenal threw away a two-goal lead against Wolves at Molineux, falling victim to a last-minute strike by Tom Edozie.

The Gunners’ time-wasting tactics were publicly mocked by Wolves on social media, highlighting their failed game management.

The match saw tempers flare after the final whistle, while the result tightens the Premier League title race, leaving Arsenal five points ahead of Manchester City, who have a game in hand.
