Aston Villa had John Carew to thank for salvaging a point in their 2-2 draw with local rivals Wolves at Villa Park on Saturday.
The Norwegian striker put his side into the lead on 16 minutes and followed a flowing move on the break from Villa. Kevin Doyle saw his effort blocked by international team-mate Richard Dunne, and was picked up by Ashley Young.
The former Watford man fought off the challenge of Ronald Zubar before crossing for Carew to prod the ball home from six yards.
The match turned on its head soon afterwards, however, as a free-kick from David Jones deflected off Zubar and into the path Jody Craddock, who scored his fifth goal of the season. Wolves built on this with some impressive play and got their reward when a cross by Matt Jarvis - intended for Jones - was deflected into his own net by James Milner.
Villa pressed and pressed in the second half, with chances for Carew and Stewart Downing among others, and the striker eventually got his second when he scored the rebound from a shot by Steve Sidwell.
Wolves appealed for off-side against Carew but the goal stood and Villa had a point.
