French midfielder Bellegarde rifled house his first purpose in over eight months, two minutes after Chris Wooden has headed Forest into an early lead.
Wolves survived a late VAR examine after Wooden’s effort was dominated out for offside, however they have been worthy of their level after defeats to Arsenal and Chelsea of their opening two matches.
Forest prolonged their unbeaten begin, taking 5 factors from their first three fixtures, and boss Nuno Espirito Santo is now unbeaten in three matches as a supervisor towards his former membership, having departed Wolves in 2021.
Wolves virtually made a flying begin when Rayan Ait-Nouri’s effort was cleared off the goal-line by Murillo earlier than Forest took an early lead.
Elliot Anderson clipped in a nook past the penalty spot and – with Wolves responsible of some wayward defending – Wooden rose unmarked to move house his second purpose of the season.
However Forest’s lead was short-lived as Wolves hit again to stage inside two minutes.
Forest defender Ibrahim Sangare’s mis-hit clearance was touched on by Mario Lemina and Bellegarde let rip from 25 yards to crash house an equaliser into Matz Sels’ high left-hand nook.
Forest then had a penalty enchantment waved away by referee Simon Hooper and Matheus Cunha lashed a 25-yard effort narrowly large in an action-packed first half.
Wolves’ £10million deadline-day signing Sam Johnstone turned away Morgan Gibbs-White’s goal-bound free-kick towards his former membership and after the spectacular Cunha was wayward with one other effort, the scores have been stage on the break.
Forest summer season signing Anderson’s shot was deflected narrowly over early within the second half and Wooden’s header, from Gibbs-White’s sensible scooped go, was saved by Sels at full stretch.
Wolves threatened by way of substitute Tommy Doyle’s thumping drive – which was deflected off track – and Cunha flashed a low shot large as the sport hung within the steadiness.
Visiting boss Gary O’Neil was booked after venting his fury over Hooper’s choice to not award the guests a penalty when the ball struck Wooden’s trailing hand within the field.
Neco Williams fired large for Forest within the closing levels and the house followers thought they’d received it when Wooden’s angled shot flew contained in the far publish following a nook, solely to see the assistant’s flag raised.
That call was confirmed by VAR and though Forest appeared the extra more likely to snatch victory throughout 10 minutes of added time, Wolves’ first level lifted them out of the underside three.
