Southampton missed the chance to go third in the Premier League as Theo Walcott’s first goal since rejoining the club was only enough for a draw at Wolves.
Saints had looked on course for victory when Walcott steered in Che Adams’ cross – his first Premier League goal for the club since December 2005.
However, Pedro Neto levelled for the hosts, following up Raul Jimenez’s low drive after it cannoned back off the left post.
Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side remain fifth, while Wolves move up three places to ninth.
