STOKE EQUALISE! KIGHTLY! 1-1! Adam finds Walters on the left, who skips inside and finds Adam again... he lunges to get the ball to the former Wolves winger, who finishes into the bottom corner with aplomb!

Pressure now on the away goal. Kightly's cross is blocked and the Stoke fans roar their men on.
