Bristol City 1-2 Wolves

Ryan Bennett's winner was his first goal for Wolves since joining in the summer on a free transfer from Norwich

Ryan Bennett's last-gasp header gave Championship leaders Wolves victory over in-form Bristol City, in a game that saw both teams reduced to 10 men.

Visiting captain Danny Batth was sent off on 14 minutes for a challenge on Hordur Magnusson, before Bobby Reid slotted in to put the Robins in front.

Barry Douglas' free-kick then made it 1-1 after City keeper Frank Fielding was sent off for fouling Matt Doherty.

Bennett won it in stoppage time to put Wolves 10 points clear of second place.

The 27-year-old centre-half met Douglas' superb delivery at the far post to head beyond substitute goalkeeper Luke Steele.

The visitors had looked the more likely to go on and win the game after Douglas' equaliser, with Steele superbly denying Romain Saiss when put clear.

Ivan Cavaleiro also came close to scoring a brilliant second goal for Wolves, who had boss Nuno Espirito Santo sent to the stands in the aftermath of Batth's early red card.

Bristol City's best moments arguably came in the opening stages before that dismissal, with Jamie Paterson and Reid both forcing John Ruddy into smart saves.

Lee Johnson's side are third after Derby's victory at Ipswich on Saturday, one point behind the Rams and six points above seventh-placed Aston Villa.
