Luke O'Reilly made a routine stop to deny the powerful Keita, who let fly from 25-yards on the quarter hour mark.
The home side found the breakthrough on 20 minutes as a cross from the left was nodded down by Reid into the path of KEITA, and the highly-rated front man fired past O'Reilly from close-range.
It didn't take long for Posh to level the scores, Robert DUGGAN racing into the box and showing immense composure to slot the ball past Dutton and into the back of the net.
On the half hour mark, Posh were inches away from taking the lead. Gordon showed tremendous strength to hold off Weeks, his intended pass for Coulson was diverted into the path of Carthey, who saw his powerful left-footed shot clatter the crossbar.
Azille-Moore was well-placed to clear on 35 minutes as O'Reilly smothered Keita's effort as Wolves stacked up the corner count. At the other end, the hosts were extremely fortunate as Posh broke at pace and worked a four v two situation, but Carthey was somehow denied by Dutton after being fed by Gordon.
