Adama Traore's late double shocked Etihad ground, where Wolverhampton Wanderers stunned Premier League defending champions Manchester City with two unanswered goals.

Traore gave the late lead to the Wolves when City's right-winger João Cancelo lost possession in his own half. Raul Jimenez took the ball forward for Wolves, drawing three defenders towards him, and delivering a perfect pass to Traore, who fired a right-foot shot past Ederson.

It is the second defeat for the Premier League champions as they now rank second with sixteen points, while Wolves came eleventh with only ten points.

Liverpool now lead the Premier League after pulling off their eighth consecutive victory against Leicester City gaining 24th point. The Reds now top the Premier League table with eight points difference from Manchester City.
