Rafael Benitez furious as Wolves pinch point via last-gasp heavy challenge on Newcastle keeper Martin Dubravka

Seems measured and composed now, I reckon he is probably thinking that it was more or less a fair goal.

"You have to be disappointed. Everybody knew that we should have had the three points. 

They were pushing, but these kind of balls you can do a little bit better. We have to defend better. This is England, people will come against the keeper and he has to be stronger.

I was not happy with some decisions but overall the referee was fine so I cannot complain."

94 mins 34 on the goal time apparently but given that RB had made a sub in injury time I think that's fair enough and all things considered a point was probably fair enough. On that note, I will bid you goodnight. Cheers! 

Maybe Boly is over the back of him but if the keeper hadn't been such a wet lettuce the point would have been moot. The keeper doesn't jump in time, the ball is past him really before he is in the air and I would say Boly is well within his rights to jump for that.

Even if you really, really slow it down it is still debatable.

One more angle. "It looked a foul from the bench, and the ref had played 94 and 52 seconds. It is another bit of bad luck for us," says Isaac Hayden. "Martin is a top top class goalkeeper, we win as a team and lose as a team. Everyone has made mistakes in the season."

Two village bits of goalkeeping in the match, come to think about it. Rui Patricio let one through his hands earlier.  Here is that one.

any minute, from the estimable Mr John Percy, but let's just stick with the live blog for a few more minutes as we wait to see what Rafa Benitez has to say about it. Something rather choice, I would imagine.

Benitez is spitting chips. He is livid. He goes to have it out with the ref. He reckons there was a foul in the build up, he reckons the keeper was fouled, he reckons that there was more than four minutes added.

And whatever way you want to slice it, we have some late, late drama. There is no time left for anything further and Wolves have pinched a point. Full time! 

Oh that's so daft from the Newcastle keeper. The ball was hoofed in, he just has to punch it clear and surely the ref would blow the whistle. But instead the keeper tries to catch it, and Boly has somehow bundled it in at the back stick. GOAL! 

Four minutes will be added. Benitez subs off Perez for Manquillo.

Wolves have their 13th corner, and the pressure is relentless on Newcastle. Sent over. Traore has it. He has fallen over under pressure from Ritchie. Penalty? Or dive? Ref gives neither.

It's played back in, the time is surely up. Traore shoots. Blocked.

Out to Traore again.... he sends a deep, looping ball in... and....

Oh my goodness!!!

Oooh, that would have been it! Wolves break in numbers, deep into the four minutes of stoppages, Traore has a golden chance to do some damage but gets the ball stuck under his feet. The moment passes.

Wolves are peppering the Newcastle goal. With headers. Salt and pepper headers? I dunno. Anyway, Boly, Bennett, Perez, have all either headed over, or given Dubravka a simple enough get.

Mo Diame replaces Isaac Hayden. Wolves having corner after corner. 

50p head? Spaghetti wrists? I sound like a cruel PE teacher from the 1970s. . I apologise. And also for the redundant usage: there was not other sort of PE teacher, of course. Anyway.

Wolves are giving it their all. 

bit of goalkeeping from Rui Patricio that led to the only goal so far. Through his spaghetti wrists.

And Traore is into the action right away! Cross comes in from the left, Traore donks it back across and Jimenez has failed to head in from a coupla yards. How did he miss that? Proper 50p head stuff to nod it wide from there. I'd say hang your head in shame but he'd probably miss.

Game has gone scrappy. Nuno and his beard are introducing Adama Traore, in favour of Doherty.

A strong, bounding run from Wor Miggy is ended in agricultural fashion by some Wolverhampton chopper or other. Oh, well Joao Moutinho, anyway. It was an amusingly brutal challenge, and all the more so given that it was from the cultured Portugal star. WELCOME TO THE PREMIER LEAGUE SON.

Talking of subs, an exciting moment for Newcastle fans as Atsu comes off and their club record signing, Almiron of The MLS, comes on to play.

He has the most tremendous eyebrows. 16 millions worth of caterpillar across a kindly, glaikit face.

Dendoncker off. Jota off. Costa and a player whose name I am not too familiar with but surely cannot be Cavolo Nero, can it come on. They don't have that sort of brassic frippery  up in Wolverhampton, surely? Cavaleiro! Yes. That's it.

Anyway, he and Costa come on and Wolves are going with four attackers.

Newcastle having a good little passage, Rondon nearly barrels his way through. Jonny bundles the scorer, Hayden, to the floor in a dangerous area.

Doherty has had a shot but hit his own player. Now a promising move comes to an end when Wolves do no quite get the run of the ball.

Maybe this will be Newcastle's night?

On the other hand, Newcastle are good front runners and have an excellent record after taking the lead. Something has to give!

Same thing a few seconds later, a nice move from the hosts sees Dubravka produce a smart stop from Jota.

But Wolves do not let their heads drop. They come right back at Newcastle and Jota has hit the target after a nice move. Useful save.

The Mags have the lead! A really nice move from Newcastle. The centre half Schar steps forward into the midfield, the Wolves players back off, they think he is going to try one. But he slips it through instead, lovely bit of cheek and disguise and reading of the game. It sets Isaac Hayden racing through and he cracks a shot at goal. All that being said, the keeper Patricio is furious with himself. He ought to have done more, and he knows it.

Schar and Jota go for a tackle, neither of them feels that the other was within his rights, and there's some afters. They both put their foreheads together in the stag manner and each has a booking for his troubles.

A corner comes over and Jota flicks on, Doherty has somehow managed to miss with a header from point-blank! I suppose the fact that Longstaff nearly kicked his head off might have been a distraction. Doherty stooped, Longstaff kicked up. Lucky for the former that no contact was made.

Jiminez and Doherty link up well but Newcastle's name is Vigilance. And not wearing a jumper.

We are underway for the second half and it is Wolves who have had their Weetabix by the looks of things.

I know it's 0-0 and every match deserves a goal, but it would be nice if Coady whacks one over the bar (not a Wolverhapton euphemism) and then you can invoke Commander Cody's "Lost In The Ozone".

Now, I must get back to sticking pins in my Pep dolly.

An unpretentious first half. Two likable and enjoyable sides both having a go, Wolves look to have a few more quality players going forward but ultimately Newcastle could have had a lead there at the end. I probably fancy Wolves to win but it's anybody's game.

Ooh big chance - maybe the best of the half. Perez opens up the Wolves defence, Rondon runs onto it and looks to have the game at his mercy. But Coady does quite well to show him outside and ultimately the angle is quite tough for Rondon, who cannot hit the target.

Matt Ritchie runs into the Wolves area, and then runs into Doherty. Ritchie hits the deck, he wants a pen. What he gets is a booking for dissent. Heh.

Dendoncker and Lejeune both going for the ball down the Wolves right. Rather a cowardly tumble from the Wolves man. I don't think the Geordie player touched him. Anyhow, the hosts get a chance to play it in and Jonny  eventually gets off a stinging shot.  Dubravka saves handily.

Newcastle mount an attack and, although Wolves have plenty of men back, said men seem to be moving at quarter pace, as if stuck in treacle or perhaps reflecting on matters weighty. Although Rondon is out numbered, he is allowed to rise unimpeded and head... at the goalie.

Long ball from Neves, finds Jiménez. He shows good control and skill, mugs off  Yedlin, drills it across... blocked. And that should be the end of the matter, but Ritchie has produced an utterly wretched attempt at a clearance that lands his side right back in the soup as Dendoncker feeds Jota. He cannot hit the target.

Schär steps forward imposingly, elegantly from the backline to join the attack. Hits a daisycutter at the goal, not all that wide, neither.

Been a handy spell for the hosts, but NUFC are not out of this by any means and are playing some decent football themselves.

End to end stuff. Newcastle have a good move, but lose it, and it's a three on three. Newcastle speed back, and do well actually: slowing the break up. Dendoncker in the end plays it to Raúl Jiménez but he is well guarded by now, it's played back and Neves shoots a mile over.

Looks lovely there!

This Jiménez is an all-round talent: makes good runs, can hit it, and here shows his vision and creativity as he opens the game up for his partner Jota by dint of a clever chest pass. 

But the Mags are defending well.

Raúl Jiménez! Ah no, that's well over. Matt Doherty the man who played him in.

A shout - and a big one - for a Wolves penalty. Jiménez is in the area and he is tackled by Atsu. The Wolves man is down. But Oxfordshire whistler Graham 'Graham' Scott says: NO DICE, or words to that effect. And rightly so: that was a fine tackle.

Lejeune owes Lascelles a... whatever it is that footballers give each other out of gratitude. A boat? Anyway, he owes him a boat for stepping in when Lejeune had dozed off and had his pocket pinched by Jiménez. Lascelles tidied up.

An even, open and quiet game so far. Wolves carry an air of menace going forward that Newcastle don't quite have. I guess the table, like these hips, don't like.

Jota has the ball in the inside left channel, good control, dribbles and spins. Does not seem to be anyone for him to pass to. He conveys this via the international face mime of "Er, guys?" His mood is also soured by the fact that he thinks a defender got the last touch as the ball went out.

I stand with Jota, on both counts.

Bright enough start from both sides, Newcastle have come to have a go.

Jonny is in down the left, his early ball is v v close to finding Jiminez.

And at the other end of the pitch, some early action for Patricio as Rondon hits the target.

The visitors kick off.

I cannot sanction those kit choices. Wolves in the wrong gold/orange. Newcastle in... aquamarine?

Lovely.

to be your guide.

if he was tempted to throw new signing Almirón right in.

"Not too tempted to be fair. When you have a new player you have to give him time, the Premier League is different. If we don't need to use him then everything is fine!

"He can create something going for us. Competition. New faces, wakes everybody up a bit."

Newcastle unchanged for four straight.

João Moutinho for some quality, Jiménez up front. Jonny is a good player. Decent keeper.

That emjoi looks more like a fox than a wolf but points for trying nevertheless. 

here are his successors. Newcastle team coming up.

is the guest on Monday Night Football. Sorry football fans, I know we were all hoping for Ashley Cole again.

SkyBot engages him in gentle chat about his time at Newcastle. He was blinkin' good, Kluivert, wasn't he? The best days were obviously past by the time he went to the North East, but still an exciting signing.

Wolverhampton is our destination this evening, Wolves as you might imagine are the hosts, and Newcastle United are their visitors. For the visitors, the hope is that £16million playmaker Miguel Almiron might make his Newcastle debut.

Some might says that Wolves vs Newcastle is not a Monday Night Football fixture to set the pulse racing, but I always enjoy the atmos when Molineux is on TV and they have better music than most. Newcastle, as always, seem poised to either really do something cool or just be a disappointment to everybody, with 24 points they are only above the relegation places on goal difference so all in all this is a bigger night for Rafa B than Nuno Espírito Santo. Two lovely chaps, aren't they? Both seem to be doing a decent job at their respective clubs. In fact, Nuno is doing a bit more than decent: 38 points already for the men in orangey gold. Not half bad.

Anyway, team news as soon as it comes in.
