WOLVERHAMPTON, England (AP) – Matt Doherty scored in the 90th minute to complete Wolverhampton's comeback from two goals down to beat 10-man Manchester City 3-2 on Friday, dealing a further blow to the champions' faint hopes of defending the Premier League title.

City is third in the standings halfway through the season, 14 points behind leader Liverpool. Jurgen Klopp's side is 13 points ahead of Leicester with a game in hand, putting the 18-time champions in strong position to end a three-decade title drought.

City has now lost five of its opening 19 games of the season, but had coped initially after goalkeeper Ederson was sent off in the 12th minute for rushing out of the penalty area and bringing down Diogo Jota.
