Arsenal vs Wolves 2-2 ended in a late twist at Molineux on Wednesday, February 18, 2026, after Arsenal let a two-goal lead slip away. Bukayo Saka put Arsenal ahead in the 5th minute and they carried a 1-0 advantage into half-time.
Arsenal made it 2-0 when Piero Hincapié scored in the 56th minute, but Wolves responded quickly. Hugo Bueno reduced the deficit in the 61st minute, setting up a frantic finish.
The equaliser arrived in stoppage time at 90+4, first recorded in match updates as a Riccardo Calafiori own goal before Tom Edozie was later reported as being awarded the goal, a change that became part of the post-match narrative.
Rob Edwards called the comeback “pretty special” and said Wolves would never give up through to the 38th game, while also saying he wanted “a little bit more backing” from supporters during difficult moments. Mikel Arteta said the second half was “very tough to accept,” adding Arsenal must do basic things better, with “Spurs away” next. Saka said the dressing room was “very flat” and the team must fix issues immediately.
