Wolves teenager Owen Otasowie has been sensational to watch with the 19 year old American taking the internet by storm. He’s looked amazing on the ball and has a very bright future in the Premier League but he took last night’s draw with Brighton incredibly hard. Wolves and Brighton battled it out for the full 90 minutes in the 6 goal Premier League thriller but the 3 points were within Otasowie’s grasp and he was one header away from being the city’s hero.
There was 3 minutes of added time and Owen Otasowie was in the Brighton box as the clock just hit the 94′ a ball was lofted into the centre of the box and Owen managed to get his head to the ball but a bad connection meant the ball went into row Z in stead of into the back of the net. When he realised he had missed the chance and that the referee had blown the final whistle he collapsed into the back of the Brighton net.
