Marc Guehi netted a late equaliser as Palace took a point at Molineux, where Wolves had previously been on course for victory after fighting back from 1-0 down to lead 2-1.

O바카라�Neil바카라�s side have now earned just three points from 10 matches, failing to win any of their first 10 games to start a league campaign for just the third time after 1926-27 (10 games) and 1983-84 (14).  

O바카라�Neil responded to Trevoh Chalobah putting Palace ahead on the hour mark with a triple substitution, introducing Mario Lemina, Goncalo Guedes and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde.

Though the former duo impressed after coming on, supporters loudly booed O바카라�Neil바카라�s decision to replace midfielder Tommy Doyle, as speculation regarding his future continues to mount.

Asked about supporter discontent after the game, O바카라�Neil said: 바카라�I바카라�m fine, it바카라�s my job. The three substitutes made a big difference, I thought we were excellent from then.

바카라�They can voice their opinions, of course, it바카라�s my job. Mario made us an awful lot better, he snuffed out so many balls and turned them into attacking situations for us.

바카라�We need to be better, of course. A lot of it ends up being my responsibility, which I바카라�m happy to take. Criticism around subs, goals can land on my doorstep, that바카라�s what I바카라�m here for.바카라�

O바카라�Neil then added: 바카라�I바카라�m disappointed because it was a really brave fightback to spin the game from 1-0 down to 2-1 up, it took a lot of effort.

바카라�Disappointed because having worked so hard to get in front, once we got in front I thought we had a good chance of seeing it out.

바카라�I thought we바카라�d have to defend a couple of moments but not be under any sort of siege, so we바카라�re disappointed we came up short with one.바카라�

Palace have now won more points from their last two matches (four) than they did through their first eight of 2024-25 (three), but boss Oliver Glasner was frustrated that they failed to put Wolves away when 1-0 up.

바카라�It was our third game in six days with a very tight squad. The only thing we can blame ourselves is for not deciding the game when we could바카라�ve done,바카라� he said.

바카라�We had the momentum with the crowd booing, this is what we could and should have done better. All of a sudden Wolves went 2-1 up and then it was back to the players who reacted, they came back again and what makes me proud is we went for the win.바카라�
