Salah had a fine goal disallowed for offside before Liverpool were awarded a second penalty when Ryan Gravenberch released Jota in the box and the Portugal international was sent tumbling by Agbadou’s lunge.
A similar move almost resulted in a second Liverpool goal for Jota but Emmanuel Agbadou and Toti threw themselves in the way of the striker’s shot, the former taking an accidental blow to the head in the process.
Liverpool nerves were evident and Wolves were close to capitalising when substitute Tommy Doyle crossed low for Munetsi, only for Quansah to intervene with a vital tackle in front of his own goal.
Sá also denied Jota with a near post save after Dominik Szoboszlai, Díaz and Andy Robertson had combined well to open up the Wolves’ right flank yet again.
The league leaders were given a serious fright by Wolves and there were nerves throughout the Liverpool team, and crowd, as a struggling opponent was kept at bay.
