Wolverhampton Wanderers came from behind to beat Bristol City 2-1 with two late goals from Sean Neave.
Bristol City took the lead in the first half when Scott Twine converted an excellent free-kick from 25 yards, his fifth goal of the season. The Robins looked on course for victory at Ashton Gate until Sean Neave struck twice in the final minutes. Neave tapped home from close range after Brad Collins parried a shot with eight minutes remaining, then scored again seven minutes later to secure the points.
Wolves stretched their unbeaten run to five matches and climbed to second in the Championship. Manager Cesar Peixoto said after the match that his side 'deserved the win' and believed they 'were the better team' over the 90 minutes. However, he paid credit to Twine's 'amazing goal' that had put Bristol City ahead.
The defeat marks Bristol City's third successive home loss. Fans expressed frustration on social media, with some feeling the team deserved something from the game after battling for 80 minutes, while others criticised the side's attacking approach and questioned manager Michael Skubala's tactics in the Championship.
