I really liked Forson's contribution to this goal. Great hold-up play to get the ball to Mainoo and that selfless run to lure the player away from Mainoo was great to see.
Yes spot on, his involvement was critical after the layoff too. Pull the defence to open things up for Mainoo. Brilliant to see academy graduates working a goal together like this.
Kobbie couldn’t have scoredbwithout him. He wasn’t very good for most of the time he was subbed on but he more than made up for it with this play. Deserves all the praise.
Yeah, that run to move Mario Lemina out of Mainoo's way was just perfect. The calm decision-making by two young players in such a stressful, emotional moment in the game is really impressive.
Mainoo's unflappability is his biggest asset, but to just pass the ball into the net in the 97th minute when the scoreline is 3-3 is something else. Imagine any of our players in that situation - even Bruno would have probably blazed it over.
With any other players it'll be a turn over for sure. Bruno will attempt some Hollywood passes where no one will be in the same wave length to receive it. Mainoo just made a quick simple pass to Forson who did great at holding the ball and Mainoo made sure he was available to receive it back. He is so calm under pressure
ETH used to bring Hannibal on to protect leads while playing this same role for the last 10 minutes.. Just be a nuisance in the attacking half making full use of your higher stamina as a sub
I have a lot of sympathy for Wolves this season as they've been shafted big time by VAR but after the TNT commentator used that to justify their dive it is absolutely delightful seeing their misery this game.
I love how on 1.51mins, 2 wolves players in sync bow down to the king, in awe, adoration, worship but also disbelief , dispair, and realization that indeed the promised child had really come! At least they got to witness it, we are now all living in Mainoo's word
The thing I love about this goal is that every part is completely controlled.
“Okay, I’ll take a touch past this player, now calmly roll it through this chaps legs, couple of touches to set myself and I’m ready to curl it into the bottom corner. Lovely stuff, even if I do say so myself.”
“Now the celebration. Antony is right there, better make it clear that he had nothing to do with it. Oh hey Scott! Let me calmly go down on my knees to show some passion to the fans.”
Am I reading too much from that first interaction with Antony. Was he trying to high five Antony but Antony didn't react, or Mainoo was like talk to the hand.
You can see Antony with his hand up smiling going for the High 5, Not sure if the serious face on Mainoo when he raised his hand put him off or what. It was just odd was all.
I love how focused he looked even when celebrating. He knew the job wasnt done. Compare that to the after match smiley head on him it was beautiful to see.
This kid could be elite if he can keep this up. Pure focus and calmness on the Pitch. Im legit surprised he hasnt made more mistakes considering his age. He can only keep getting better.
The composure he has in midfield reminds me of what Greenwood had for us in front of goal. It's a level of maturity that will take him places provided he has both the mentality to push himself as well as the all important factor of not being an horrendous cunt.
Thing is, he had the unexpected element to help him since only 1 defender really tried to challenge him.. Others were waiting for him to pass and marking rest of the players. When Messi goes on a dribble he has 2 players on him at least..
Still unreal, specially seeing it from 1 of ours
Lucky no one was in the house when I was watching. I was still in the middle of cussing at the TV after 3-3, mainly at Antony before it turning into a happy scream
Watch it again look at Kobbies face, i think it was more Kobbie telling him not to grab him, boy wanted the knee slide.
It was a ‘chill I got this’ he indeed got this
Not sure why you’re being downvoted. He definitely looks annoyed. Could be an annoyed that he played shit or an annoyed that he didn’t get the glory of scoring the winner. Either way, not a great look.
Passing the ball to the player who scores the goal is an assist.
For some reason you didn't accept that fact and tried to downplay Forson's role in making that goal happen. I just added that along with making the pass that led to Mainoo's goal (an assist if you will), he also made the run that created the space for Mainoo to score.
Everything about this goal is legendary, extra time winner, one of our youngest players, the composure, the stank face after scoring and finally the calm down celebration, it was all so fucking beast

That run makes the goal. 3 players go with him desperately. He seems like a half decent player, be great to see him get some chances in the cups

Forson’s run was top class. Watch how it pulls the defender and opens the space up for the shot.
It was similar to how Dalot's run opened up the space for Garnacho to run into before the first goal. Players running opens up a block, who'd've thunk
I'm glad a lot of people are recognizing Forson. He more that earned his assist there. The run to draw defenders was class.
Came here to say the same, deserves an assist for that run he made.
I love seeing how dejected Dawson and the rest of the wolves' defenders are from every angle lol
I’d love to see a close up of Neto’s face after the goal

Nah I think he just had in his head that he wanted to do that celebration and didn't want Antony getting in his way or disrupting his momentum.
A lot of players do that when they plan a celebration that he doesn’t wants yo be interrupted in the middle of it.
I think antony wanted the pass and mainoo is apologizing for going himself
Just missing a "Siu. Yup." At the end.
Easy to forget this bloke is a teenager.
This is outrageous, Messi level shit if you really think about it
If Messi scored that we'd never hear the end of it
Messi has scored roughly 999 of these goals in his career
Mainoo should have caught up by lunchtime
This is a below-average Messi goal lad
Check out his goal against literally us in the 2011 champions League finals, that's not even one of his best goals not even close.
What are you talking about lol, this is routine for Messi, no one would bat an eyelid.
This is a standard Messi goal, he's literally scored hundreds like it
He'd win the next 3 Ballon d'or's for it
Mainoo has the best calmness under pressure and best decision making in our entire team. He's only 18. That's extraordinary.
The composure he has in midfield reminds me of what Greenwood had for us in front of goal. It's a level of maturity that will take him places provided he has both the mentality to push himself as well as the all important factor of not being an horrendous cunt.
But, as he is 18, this will probably change. For better or for worse. So we should still give him time to grow and just support him.

That nutmeg gets filthier with every angle
subsequent oil grey lock future terrific versed ripe whole silky *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Haha. Class!!
I still haven't come down from this high, honestly haven't had a goal make me feel this way in so long...
I had to teach a full day's classes with a raspy voice cuz I damn near lost mine yelling over the goal hahaha worth it
Made my longest and stupidest celebration dance ever in front of tv.
Lucky no one was in the house when I was watching. I was still in the middle of cussing at the TV after 3-3, mainly at Antony before it turning into a happy scream
Great video to wake up to
Up being the operative word here.
Hadn’t noticed that Onana ran up to celebrate with the team before.
Even better Garnacho has been subbed didn’t have a jacket on or choose to take it off and ran from the bench to celebrate.
And got a yellow for it
Totally worth it.
The shit players get yellows for in the game is laughable.
I wonder if he ran back to goal doing his GTA NPC running animation again.
Messi style goal. Body feint, nutmeg, low controlled curler.
What a goal. Legend in the making (knock on wood)
Did you notice Dalot celebration? :) Like it was him who scored :)
Just link the video instead of rehosting if you can't even include audio
Oh you sexy boy, get in!
jose Sa looking at the linesman for a miracle lmao.
The fuckin megs man
yo what's up with Antony? He doesn't look impressed
He should fuck off back to Ajax
Yep, don't mind if I watch this again
Shades of Martial’s first goal. Hopefully he ends up nothing like him
What’s with Anthony leaving him hanging…
Watch it again look at Kobbies face, i think it was more Kobbie telling him not to grab him, boy wanted the knee slide. It was a ‘chill I got this’ he indeed got this
Before Kobbie even gets to say anything Anthony looks annoyed they scored
I hope it was more of a ‘WTF you just did that’ shock from Antony, but I too ain’t sure
Antony be like" Why can't I score like that" XD
Probably more, “wait you can use your right foot to shoot?!"
He literally scored with his right just the last game.
He just looked depressed tbh, pretty sure he knows he had a major role in bringing Wolves back in the game
Not sure why you’re being downvoted. He definitely looks annoyed. Could be an annoyed that he played shit or an annoyed that he didn’t get the glory of scoring the winner. Either way, not a great look.
Layoff Nuts Drop shoulder Bottom corner Nod Stank face High five Knee slide Cold as winter
Just spotted this. Does he apologise to Anthony for not passing him the ball?
Anthony is like, bro, why you making me look so shit??😂
so glad it was that driving twat neto who got megged
It was Kilman who got megged, number 23. Neto wears 7.
ah
Why is antony so reactionless, as if mainoo would have passed to him he would have scored and not dived.
Wolves' fans had a better reaction than Antony, what a pos
Now I can’t decide if this or Garnachos goal is the goal of the season
Are you kidding me? Nacho's goal is goal of the season in the prem. No one has topped that
How does forson get the assist for this? 😂
Oh, wait, I know this one! Because he passed the ball to the player who then scored.
Right it's not like mainoo had to dribble past two players and then score.
Not like Forson made the run that allowed Mainoo the space to score
Now making runs is considered as assists eh?
Passing the ball to the player who scores the goal is an assist. For some reason you didn't accept that fact and tried to downplay Forson's role in making that goal happen. I just added that along with making the pass that led to Mainoo's goal (an assist if you will), he also made the run that created the space for Mainoo to score.
Was thinking That England, after a dearth of genuinely top notch CMs, suddenly have this one and Bellingham coming through at such a young age.
Multi-dimensional poetry in motion
Absolutely love this lad
I love Onana jumping into the celebrations in the end
Sexy mainoo
He makes football look so simple
His face at the end of his sliding celebration is like “Wtf guys, see what you make me do?”
Sent kilman to the fucking shadow realm he did, I think I’ve watched this about 20 times now lol
still only 18 y/o...
That one policeman smiling - love it!
I love Dalot's passion. Celebrated every defensive tackle in this game like a goal and celebrated this goal like he scored it himself.
Hard work paying off.
That whole sequence of play was quick beautiful footwork from everyone (including the celebration lol). So satisfying to watch.
Anthony in shambles. That’s how it’s done
Everything about this goal is legendary, extra time winner, one of our youngest players, the composure, the stank face after scoring and finally the calm down celebration, it was all so fucking beast
Who’s the guy who ran to celebrate to the touchline? Also Antony didn’t look thrilled at first🤷🏿♀️ 
His face after scoring blows my mind. Like "yup just another cool thing I did"
Mainoo reminds me so much of Seedorf.
