Andy Reid
Former Premier League midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live at Gtech Community Stadium
I think that is a penalty. There is no need for Diouf to go to ground there.
Brentford 1-0 West Ham
VAR upholds ref Craig Pawson's call of penalty.
Wolves 0-1 Sunderland
Adam Armstrong tries his luck from range but it is easy enough for Robin Roefs to gather.
Brentford 1-0 West Ham
This'll be close! El Hadji Malick Diouf goes to ground, sliding in on Dango Ouattara and catching the winger right on the edge of the box. The big question, is this in the area? Ref Craig Pawson gives it.
Darren Cann
Former Premier League assistant referee on BBC Sport
Dan Ballard saw red after another hair pulling incident this season. The incident, in the 24th minute, saw Ballard grab the hair of Tolu Arokodare - ironically the same player whose hair was pulled by Michael Keane this season which also resulted in a red card.
The Video Assistant Referee, Matt Donohue, had no choice but to alert referee Paul Tierney to the incident and the inevitable red card for Ballard was correctly issued.
Wolves 0-1 Sunderland
Yerson Mosquera is unable to steer his diving header on target after connecting with Andre's cross inside the area.
It has been a bright start to the second half from Rob Edwards' side.

The Brazilian looks for William Osula with a low cross, but Jan Paul van Hecke gets a boot to it. For fear of touching a back pass, Brighton goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen controls the loose ball with his chest before booting it away.
Brentford 1-0 West Ham
Eleven shots now for West Ham. Pablo heads Mateus Fernandes' cross over the bar.
Wolves 0-1 Sunderland
Hugo Bueno’s long throw into the box causes chaos. Adam Armstrong almost fires home at the back post, but his effort is expertly blocked by a Sunderland defender.
Brentford 1-0 West Ham
Early chance for Brentford at the start of the second half but Michael Kayode's long throw is headed clear.
Newcastle 2-0 Brighton
Brighton get the second half underway.
Wolves 0-1 Sunderland
We're back under way at Molineux.
During the break, Wolves replaced Pedro Lima with Rodrigo Gomes.

Will Osula is a strange one. I still am not sure if he’s the real deal or flattering to deceive. He does miss chances mind but he’s starting getting them now as well. Hate him to go somewhere else and be a worldy.
Richard, North Shields.
One of the best things about Osula is that he is irritating. He is a brilliant mixture of unorthodox and relentless and defenders will hate to play against him. I’d build our attack around him over Nick and Wissa

Andy Reid
Former Premier League midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live at Gtech Community Stadium
Neither team has had any control of the game. There has been quite a few misakes in the middle of the park which means there has been plenty of turnovers.
It's a really interesting game. There isn't anything standing out tactically, I think this is a game of who can make the least mistakes.
Use 'Get involved' to have your say
Such are the depths to which Wolves have fallen, and such is the apathy among supporters, most of us feel we could be playing nine men and still wouldn’t score.

Paul Robinson
Former England goalkeeper on Radio 5 Sports Extra
2-0 doesn't even begin to tell the storyline of that first half, what a game we have just witnessed, playing to strengths instead of defending weaknesses.
