Foster's Stoppage-Time Heist: Burnley Steals Six Points from Wolves' Grasp
Kaçırılmaz Futmetrix Puanı: 94/100. A relegation six-pointer that swung on a substitute's 90th-minute thunderbolt, turning despair into deliverance.
When the Underdog Strikes Back
Wolves dominated possession with 57% and 15 total shots, yet Burnley left Molineux with the scalp. This wasn't tactical brilliance—it was Intensity distilled into five goals across 76 minutes. Zian Flemming opened the floodgates at 14 minutes, then doubled his tally at 30, giving the visitors a commanding 2-0 cushion. But Balance demanded chaos.
A penalty from J.S. Larsen (42') cut the deficit, and M. Munetsi's last-gasp equalizer at 45' meant Wolves trudged into the break level. The Stakes suffocated both teams—a six-pointer between 20th-placed Wolves (2 points, winless in nine) and 16th-placed Burnley (10 points, clinging to hope). Possession meant nothing. Clinical finishing would.
The Substitute Who Changed Everything
For 77 minutes, the second half belonged to neither. Then Burnley's bench stirred. L. Foster, introduced at 77 minutes, became the architect of Upset. With the match drifting toward a draw neither side could afford, Foster struck at 90—not from open play, but from the chaos of a final Burnley push. H. Mejbri's assist (arriving at 90+1) proved the difference between survival and oblivion.
Wolves fired 26 combined shots across both teams, with 14 finding the target. Goalkeepers made 9 saves. The Intensity of the shooting gallery was matched only by the Balance of momentum—three lead changes, one tied period, a goal flurry between minutes 30-45 that set the tone for madness. Yet it took a 13th-minute substitute appearance and a 90th-minute finish to settle it.
This wasn't pretty. It was necessary. For Burnley, three points in a relegation dogfight. For Wolves, another defeat that deepens the crisis. The Upset probability gap of 27% made this a genuine shock—Burnley were underdogs, yet they stole the narrative with a late-game ruthlessness Wolves couldn't match.
