Tolu Arokodare scored a late Wolves equaliser as Brentford let a two-goal lead slip to dent their Champions League challenge.

Igor Thiago had celebrated his first call-up for Brazil by putting the Bees 2-0 up against the Premier League’s bottom club after Michael Kayode’s opener.

But Adam Armstrong pulled one back for Wolves before half-time and, in a frantic second half, Arokodare hauled them level.

Rob Edwards’ revitalised side almost snatched a third straight win – and a first away from home this season – but Arokodare’s header thudded against the crossbar.

It was a match between the team trying to pull off the Premier League’s greatest escape and the side bidding to become the unlikeliest Champions League qualifiers – but unfortunately a draw was of little use to either.
