'This game has had everything!' - Red card and double VAR drama highlight wild Man City-Wolves match

Manchester City and Wolves played out a wild first half on Friday that saw a red card within 12 minutes and penalty drama 10 minutes later that saw VAR used twice in two minutes.

With the game at Molineux scoreless, Conor Coady found a streaking Diogo Jota with a long ball over the top of City's defence.

Man City goalkeeper Ederson decided there was no other option but to charge out of his box, and the Brazilian upended Jota well outside of the box after the Wolves attacker had dinked the ball over him.

Referee Martin Atkinson didn't hesitate in showing Ederson an immediate red card, leaving City down to 10 men with just 12 minutes on the clock.
