Foster at 95th minute: Burnley floor Wolves after stirring Molineux fightback

Lyle Foster’s 95th-minute winner gave Burnley their first away victory of the season, and left Wolves crushed after a rousing fightback in a breathless 3-2 at Molineux. Zian Flemming’s first-half double had the visitors in command, only for Jørgen Strand Larsen’s penalty and Marshall Munetsi’s header to haul the hosts level before the interval.

Wolves pushed for a winner after the break — Jhon Arias rattled the bar and Martin Dubravka produced big saves — but the final word belonged to Burnley’s bench, as substitutes Hannibal Mejri and Foster combined for a stoppage-time sting. The result leaves Wolves bottom of the table and winless in the league, while Burnley rise to 16th, five points clear of the drop, on a night heavy with consequence and emotion.
