Newcastle took the lead after 22-minutes as Jose Sa spilled Anthony Gordon’s cross into the box and Callum Wilson finished at the second attempt with an overhead kick to grab his sixth goal of the season in only his fourth start.
Mario Lemina equalised for Wolves after 36 minutes as he headed in from Pedro Neto’s corner.
Hwang Hee-Chan then fouled Fabian Schar inside the box with a penalty awarded following a lengthy VAR check. Wilson then converted his second of the game from 12-yards despite Sa getting a decent hand on the effort as The Magpies went in 2-1 ahead at the break.
Hwang Hee-Chan then equalised for Wolves by chopping inside of Dan Burn before finding the bottom right corner.
Here are the Newcastle United player ratings from the match...
1. Nick Pope - 5
Had to be alert as Wolves posed a threat. Made a good stop to tip Matheus Cunha’s effort around the post. Had a strong hand to tip Pedro Neto’s strike over the bar but got nowhere near the resulting corner as Wolves levelled. Opted to punch the ball instead of catch it to keep Newcastle under pressure before Wolves equalised for a second time.
2. Kieran Trippier - 4
Was beaten on a couple of occasions down his side and gave possession away cheaply a number of times with some tired passing. Lost Mario Lemina for Wolves’ equaliser. A very uncharacteristic display by his high standards. Booked.
3. Jamaal Lascelles - 5
Made a strong challenge on Hwang Hee Chan in a dangerous position but lacked a bit of composure in possession. Booked.
4. Fabian Schar - 8
Tackled well and has been the only calm head in an erratic back four. Brought the ball out well on a number of occasions to link the defence and midfield. Won the penalty for Newcastle’s second goal and headed wide late on. Another classy display from the Swiss international.
