90+4' The final whistle. Man City hold on to beat Wolves 1-0.
90+3' Elokobi crosses and Stearman arrives... he heads just wide!! Wright-Phillips put him off.- 90+2' A chance for City as Wright-Phillips cannot capitalise with space in the box. A let-off for the Wolves.
90+1' Bellamy offside after three minutes of time added on are signalled.- 90' Keogh plays inside for Jarvis who strikes wide of the far post!! He mis-hit it, a shame for the lad. He has had a good game.
- 89' When the ball is cleared Bellamy has space on the left with only Mancienne in front of him... he delays and looks for a pass across the field, intercepted. Back come Wolves...
- 88' A long ball into the mixer forces Dunne to concede a corner...
- 87' City have dropped deep while Wolves seek an equaliser.
- 86' A low cross causes all sorts of problems for City, but they survive...
- 85' It is wasted - it was played short to Henry and he and Jarvis managed to turn attack into defence.
- 84' Bridge fouls Stearman on the right touchline and Wolves will bend this into the box...
83' City change: And as if to show that they wish to protect their lead, Robinho is replaced by midfielder Nigel de Jong.- 82' A quiet settles on proceedings. City would be very happy with a 1-0 win at this point. Wolves would love a point, absolutely love it...
- 81' City have now scored in 11 consecutive league home matches - they failed to score only twice in 19 league matches at the City of Manchester Stadium last season.
- 80' Robinho sent down the left after a lovely pass through by Adebayor - the Togo star heard your commentator moan and has decided to react - and centres low for Bellamy... he cannot quite get to the ball as he slides for it.
- 79' Adebayor battles back to the corner flag to win a goal-kick. That's more like it - everyone loves a trier. Adebayor battles for ball
- 78' Adebayor has disappeared after his first-half extravagance: Adebayor celebrates goal
77' Ward has an ice pack around his knee on the bench.- 76' Jarvis crosses from near the by-line on the left and that man Keogh attacks the ball. The ball comes off Dunne, but a goal-kick is awarded. Tut tut.
- 75' The Wolves boss rates one of his strikers: McCarthy: Andy's handy
- 74' Wolves change: Wales striker Sam Vokes on for Ward.
- 73' Stearman again attacking the ball in the box, just cleared though. Free-kick to Wolves near the touchline.
- 73' Man City change: Craig Bellamy on for Tevez to a big welcome from those jittery Mancunians.
- 72' Elokobi on the left, bending a cross into the six-yard box.. in fact it was sneaking in and Given just managed to punch behind for another corner!
- 71' Doyle in the box goes to ground under a challenge from three men - no penalty, and rightly so.
- 70' Wolves piling on the pressure with a pair of corner kicks then Jarvis's cross is almost met by three leaping Wolves defenders. Panic in the stands!!
- 69' WOLVES HIT THE BAR!! Hennessey's long kick is not dealt with by Toure and the ball drops nicely for Keogh - his volley crashes back off the woodwork and Barry eventually puts the ball out for a corner!!
68' Robinho puts the ball in the net at the far post from a low Wright-Phillips cross - but the flag is raised - correctly - against him.- 67' City fan? Want the latest news and all that palava? Go here: Man City team page
- 66' Adebayor through... Adebayor wide of Hennessey... Adebayor shoots... into the side-netting!! It was a lovely through-ball from Ireland, although the frontman looked offside - his first touch was too heavy and made the angle too narrow.
- 65' Barry clears last-ditch as Doyle and Keogh again threaten. They could yet get something from this match as they attack the goal behind which their fans are situated.
- 64' Wolves win a corner. Stearman rises at the back stick and nods down - and past Given's post.
- 63' Fan of the Wolves? Wondering about the latest news and stats etc? Go here: Wolves team page
- 62' Restlessness in the stands as Wolves knock the ball about. The away team are the most comfortable - credit to McCarthy's changes at the break.
- 61' Richards bursts down the right but cannot put a cross into the box despite the presence of many, many attackers.
- 60' Robinho messing about with the ball in the wrong area and is muscled off it - no free-kick as he goes down. Jarvis feeds Doyle, whose cross is tempting for Keogh... no cigar.
- 59' Adebayor volleys over the bar from the corner of the box, good effort. What other matches are going on today? Premier League fixtures/results
- 58' Ireland with a great run across the face of the box, receiving the ball back and bearing down on goal... only Hennessey in front of him... and he scuffs it well wide!! What happened there?
- 57' City picked up 39 points from 19 home league matches last season - the third best record in the division behind Man Utd (50) and Liverpool (43). Chelsea also picked up 39 at home.
- 56' Keogh still putting himself about in that area in front of the City defence. He cannot win the ball as City begin to earn more possession.
- 55' The kick is headed away. The match ready to spark into life like a newly-purchased Zippo lighter. Not that we're condoning smoking.
- 54' The other centre-half Kolo Toure plays long for Adebayor, whose flick for Robinho is not converted into a chance - but wins a corner.
- 53' Home captain Dunne shrugs off Doyle and gives the ball back to Given. Will he be joined in defence soon by an England centre-half? Does anyone care anymore? City reach Lescott stalemate
- 52' Man City not getting into the game in this second half. They look a bit nervy.
- 51' Only four of the current Wolves squad have previously scored in the Premier League – Kevin Doyle (19), Jody Craddock (3), Andy Keogh (1) and David Jones (1). Record signing Doyle expected to provide the goals to keep them up this season.
- 50' Wright-Phillips tries to get away but Elokobi - who a few years ago was playing in Sunday league - does brilliantly to turn with him and deprive him of the ball.
- 49' Another good move by Wolves, Keogh again on the left with Richards out of position - this time he crosses and it is half a yard too far ahead of a diving Doyle.
- 48' Doyle with a clever one-touch pass for Keogh on the left... the latter cuts in and shoots way wide when a cross for the Dyler would have been a better option.
- 47' Double Wolves change at half-time: Striker Kevin Doyle and left-back George Elokobi on for Milijas and Halford.
46' The second half underway, Wolves now kicking to our right.- - Check out our gallery of the action from across the country this afternoon: Premier League photos
- - To the readers' views: kolawole's prediction for the match: Man City 3-2 Wolves (Robinho, Adebayor, Tevez; Keogh, Henry)
- - Morty: Get Hahnemann in there!
- - Bababooey: (The goal) looked offside, but woo hoo!!
- - BinnieBoy: COME ON THE WOLVES! They are just another team that can be and will be beaten...
- - burnsyboy21: I've gotta say City's team looks immense... although personally I would choose Petrov over Robi at the moment - I just think Petrov has got more drive and works harder for the team.
- 45+2' And the whistle sounds at Eastlands to applause from the jubilant fans - half-time. Excepting one shot from the Wolves, there is only one team going to win this game.
- 45+1' The crowd quietens as they await their half-time pies and pints.
- 45' Keogh spins and shoots low for Wolves, past the near post. Given was scrambling across but it wasn't that close.
- 44' Tevez free in the box from a Barry cross - but heads wide of the post!! He should have scored that.
- 43' Wright-Phillips put on the deck in the box by Ward, who had his arms all over him... no penalty. He went to ground easy, so I wouldn't have given it. But that's just me.
- 42' Only once before have City won their opening two Premier League matches of the season. In 2007-08, they won their first three matches without conceding a goal.
- 41' Shout for a penalty as Richard Dunne blocks a header from a cross into the box. It hit his chest.
- 40' Jarvis with a curling effort which Given reaches into the top corner to palm over!! Henry found him and he shook off a marker before firing at goal from 25 yards at least...
- 39' The Gallagher brothers are watching from separate executive boxes. Another fall-out? Let's hope they won't be looking back in anger come the end of the season... sorry.
- 38' Barry with a cross which proves way too long for the strikers in the box. The home fans aren't complaining too much.
- 37' Serbian Nenad Milijas finds Karl Henry, who passes to Jarvis. When the ball comes into the middle and Edwards, his shot is a foot over the top. Better from the away side.
- 36' Adebayor comes back on to applause, seemingly okay. Tevez penalised near halfway.
- 35' Adebayor holding the back of his ankle just off the pitch, grimacing in pain.
- 34' A great spell from the home team, threatening to steamroller Wolves.
- 33' Tevez with a great dummy turn in the box to allow arriving full-back Richards to shoot, blocked from close in. Corner.
- 32' Robinho teasing Stearman again on the left before shooting for the near-post top corner - tipped over by Hennessey!!
- 31' Tevez's free-kick is into the wall and he cracks another effort... low and hard and saved well by Hennessey to his left!!
31' Robinho hauled down by Stearman near the corner of the box... free-kick and yellow card for the right-back.- 30' Same again! Adebayor sprints down the right touchline away from Mancienne - great turn - and plays across towards Tevez, who leaves it - and Robinho's shot is low and pappy... and saved! This move gets a star for the turn and run from the striker.
- 29' Adebayor dinks a weighted pass across the pitch for the arriving Robinho, who traps it, comes inside and shoots low - but lacking in power. Saved.
- 28' Wolves midfielder Matthew Jarvis spins the ball over the top for Keogh, who cannot get near it again.
- 27' Adebayor has now scored two from three shots. He seems to have settled well into the club.
- 26' Manchester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers have met 102 times in the league: City have won 38, Wolves 41 and 23 draws. So now you know.
- 25' Great move from City!! Richards coaxes out a couple of Wolves players and feeds the feet of Wright-Phillips, who turns loanee Michael Mancienne and attacks the by-line... the ball back for Adebayor sees a one-two with Ireland before the Togolese smashes for goal - saved by a standing Hennessey.
- 24' Wolves still struggling to create anything as another long ball goes through to Given.
- 23' Shay Given claims a Wolves cross and sends Wright-Phillips away... he makes it all the way into the opposite box before Ward slide tackles him.
- 22' Not enough pace on it from the England midfielder, Hennessey catching comfortably.
- 21' Wright-Phillips wins a free-kick in Barry territory, 25 yards out on the right - David Edwards cropped him from behind.
- 20' Wolves are unbeaten in their last four Premier League away games - they've only played Wigan away this season so far - and were the only team to win more than 10 away games in the Championship last season.
- 19' How did the standings look before the game? Premier League table
- 18' Robinho messed around with the ball on the left before teeing up Bridge for a cross. It was deflected to Tevez, who fed the former Arsenal striker down the right side of the box - and the Togo international turned to finish low inside the near post.
17' GOAL FOR CITY!! ADEBAYOR SCORES THE OPENER!! He makes it two goals from two shots this season!!- 16' Good football from City - you get the impression they are biding their time rather than at a loss for a way through. Patience is the key.
- 15' Irishman Ward tackles Micah Richards near the by-line and gives away a corner. It is cleared by Mick McCarthy's side.
- 14' Adebayor caught offside a second time from Barry's visionary pass. That is lazy striker's play - look along the line!!
- 13' Wolves man Andy Keogh, working his socks off alone up front, has a dig from 20 yards out - wide of the near post. The home side are yet to get a shot off.
- 12' Stephen Ward climbs all over Tevez near halfway and referee Lee Mason blows up.
- 11' Greg Halford launches a long throw into the box to worry City temporarily. His five shots this season are the most of anyone in the league - before kick-off at least.
- 10' Citizens striker Adebayor has a 100 per cent conversion rate this season, having scored with his only shot at Blackburn last weekend.
- 9' Robinho tries a clever pass on the half-volley - the one where you wrap your foot round the back of your opposite leg - and it is blocked. He looks sheepish. Tevez's crossfield ball runs out of play.
- 8' Stephen Ireland applying himself as always as City pass the ball around in the Wolves half.
- 7' Wolves have packed the midfield so far. Tevez closes down Hennessey and his kick is just past the striker's dive across the six-yard box... soon after Adebayor and Tevez close him down again and he slips while clearing!! He gets away with it.
- 6' City have taken 27 points from their last 10 Premier League home games at Eastlands, while they did not draw a home game in the 2008-09 season.
- 5' City wide man Shaun Wright-Phillips on the left seeks the run of Tevez on the far side of the box but his pass is cut out. The fans gasp.
- 4' A bit of pressure from City as Gareth Barry bends a free-kick in for Adebayor, whose header is challenged and goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey collects.
- 3' Former Leicester defender Richard Stearman, playing right-back for his hometown club, clears long - and to no one.
- 2' There is a cracking atmosphere as the fans get behind their moneyed stars. Robinho plays a ball in from the right for Adebayor, but Wolves defend.
1' Wolves kick us off, attacking the goal to our left. Man City in light blue of course and the visitors in old gold.- - A pre-game huddle from the Wolves. Will it do them any good?
- - The teams are out and the sun is shining. A full house at Eastlands, with 2,000 from Wolverhampton.
- - Will Wolves do it this afternoon? Recent matches point to an upset: Wolves have won four and lost only one of the last six visits to play City in Manchester. Less fascinating is the fast that four of the last five league meetings in Manchester have ended with a 1-0 scoreline.
- - The last meeting between Man City and Wolves saw the visitors take the lead three times and the hosts come back to equalise on each occasion in a 3-3 draw at Eastlands.

- - Wolves are missing the striker who put them in the top flight as Sylvan Ebanks-Blake remains out with a hamstring problem.
