"Michael Keane and Jack Grealish were both sent off as nine-man Everton held on for a 1-1 draw against lowly Wolves. The Everton duo saw red cards in a dramatic conclusion to Wednesday's contest at Hill Dickinson Stadium, where the spoils were shared. Keane had put Everton in front in the 17th minute, as he turned Tim Iroegbunam's drilled shot into the top corner, after James Tarkowski did well to keep James Garner's deep free-kick alive."
"A bizarre turn of events then saw Keane sent off, after a VAR review for violent conduct - the centre-back was adjudged to have pulled Tolu Arokodare's hair. Grealish was then given his marching orders seven minutes later after sarcastically applauding referee Thomas Kirk. Wolves, with a two-man advantage, almost snatched all three points in stoppage time, but they had to settle for one after Pickford made a superb reflex save to keep out Hugo Bueno's curling long-range attempt."
Everton took the lead in the 17th minute when Michael Keane turned Tim Iroegbunam's drilled shot into the top corner after James Tarkowski helped keep James Garner's deep free-kick alive.

Wolves introduced Jorgen Strand Larsen in the 67th minute and two minutes later he set up Mateus Mane to equalise. A VAR review later sent Keane off for violent conduct after adjudged hair pulling, and Jack Grealish was dismissed for sarcastically applauding the referee. Jordan Pickford produced a reflex save in stoppage time to secure a 1-1 draw.
