Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-2 Crystal Palace: Oliver Glasner 'proud' of team

Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-2 Crystal Palace: Wolves fought back from two goals down to earn a point against Crystal Palace at Molineux.

Wilfried Zaha (11) and Jordan Ayew (29) scored for the visitors, but Fabio Silva (54) and Raul Jimenez (76) netted for Wolves to secure a point for the home side

It was a pulsating encounter from the off, with Wolves dominating possession in the opening stages.

And they were rewarded for their pressure in the 11th minute when Zaha capitalized on a defensive error to fire Palace ahead.

Wolves continued to push for an equalizer, but they fell further behind just before the half-hour mark when Ayew headed home Zaha's cross.

However, Wolves refused to lie down and pulled a goal back nine minutes into the second half when Silva headed home from close range.

The home side continued to press for an equalizer, and they were eventually rewarded in the 76th minute when Jimenez netted from the spot after Zaha had brought down Rayan Ait-Nouri in the area.

It was a deserved point for Wolves, who showed great character to come back from two goals down.

Oliver Glasner 'proud' of team

Speaking after the match, Wolves head coach Oliver Glasner said he was "proud" of his team's performance.

"We showed great character to come back from two goals down against a very good Crystal Palace team," said Glasner.

"We created a lot of chances and could have won the game in the end."

Glasner also praised the impact of his substitutes, who helped Wolves to turn the game around.

"The substitutes made a big difference," said Glasner.

"They brought fresh legs and energy to the team, and they helped us to get back into the game."

Wolves looking to build on positive result

Wolves will be looking to build on their positive result when they travel to Leeds United on Saturday.

The Whites are in good form themselves, having won their last three games, and they will be looking to make it four in a row against Wolves.

It will be a tough test for Wolves, but they will be confident of getting a result if they can produce a similar performance to the one they showed against Crystal Palace.
