It ends all square at the City Ground, as another pair of quick-fire goals midway through the second half ensure the spoils are shared! Forest took the lead for the first time with their first real chance of the second period, with Danilo on hand to finish off a scrappy move after Gibbs-White had twice looked to have lost the ball in the box. Barely five minutes later though, Wolves drew themselves level in similarly disjointed style, as a set-piece header from Kilman was bundled into the net by Cunha following a spill and a scramble from Forest goalkeeper Sels on the line. Sels' opposite number Sa made a double save from Hudson-Odoi and Danilo straight from the restart, keeping Williams and Hudson-Odoi at bay again as Wolves held on for a point, registering just 1.07 xG to Forest's 1.88. That point means they stay 11th in the table having missed the chance to leapfrog Brighton and Chelsea, while a draw also leaves Forest one precarious point above Luton in the final relegation place.

Dominguez arrives on the volley after Gibbs-White's corner is headed clear by Wolves, but he can only send his effort skywards from the edge of the box as the final whistle sounds!

Origi skilfully controls a flick-on and gets around the outside of Kilman to cross, but Lemina steps in to block behind for a late, late, late Forest corner.

Williams and Lemina's collision sends the ball looping back towards the Forest box, but Omobamidele holds off the attention of Hwang to safely head it back into Sels' gloves.

Forest are on track to drop their 50th and 51st Premier League points from winning positions since the start of last season, unless of course they can find a late winner here!

We're into SIX added minutes at the City Ground, which given what we've seen so far, is more than enough for either side to find that crucial winning goal!

WIDE!!!! Was that THE chance for Forest!!! A glorious throughball from Ribiero puts Origi in behind the chasing Wolves defence. He's got Wood to his left, but the Belgian's attempt resembles neither a shoit or a cross as he drags it miles wide of the left post!!
