WOLVERHAMPTON:The result leaves Leicester in third place on 50 points, while Wolves moves up to seventh place on 36, five points off the Champions League places. Wolves thought it had the lead just before the break when Willy Boly headed home after a short-corner routine.
But VAR ruled that Pedro Neto was marginally offside when he crossed. The VAR footage showed Neto’s non-striking foot slightly offside when he received the ball back from Diogo Jota from the short corner. Leicester went down to 10 men when Hamza Choudhury was sent off for tripping Leander Dendoncker.
The central defensive midfielder picked up a second yellow card in the 76th minute. On Saturday, Burnley defeated Southampton 2-1. Ashley Westwood and Matej Vydra struck for the winning side.
