Wolves tonight (Tuesday) managed to break a streak of eight games without a win with three points and 1: 2 at the expense of the unfortunate Arsenal, who finished the 90 minutes with only nine players.
The Gunners, who started the first half excellently, took the lead in the 32nd minute after a justified goal by Nicola Pepe, who kicked wonderfully to the far corner.
But the London euphoria ended in extra time of the half when David Louise tripped Daniel Podensa.
Wolves received a penalty kick from the penalty spot, and the Brazilian was sent off in red.
Ruben Neves did not miss the penalty and set up 1: 1 before going down to the break.
Four minutes into the first half, Joao Moutinho kicked a missile from 25 straight into the net for Brand Lano, who in the 72nd minute decided to go off the field and touch the ball with his hand.
Lenno was sent off and left the painful Gunners with nine players stuck in tenth place.
In another game, Sheffield United scored their third win of the season with a 1-2 draw at West Bromwich Albion.
Jayden Bugle (56) and Billy Sharp (73) scored for the winner, Matt Phillips (41) only temporarily equalized.
