Wolves through with two-goal win over Toffees

2 hours ago 2

Wolves shrugged off their poor Premier League form with a 2-0 win over Everton at Molineux in the third round of the Carabao Cup.

Marshall Munetsi opened the scoring in the first half by slotting in the rebound after Mark Travers had parried Jhon Arias' wicked left-footed volley. Tolu Arokodare sealed the win late in the game with a deft chip over the goalkeeper to score his first goal for the club.

Everton had tested Sam Johnstone early through Michael Keane's header but only really looked threatening after introducing Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Beto at the break - and particularly once Jack Grealish and Iliman Ndiaye came on just before the hour.

But Wolves stood firm with Andre putting in a player of the match performance in midfield. It is five defeats from five for Vitor Pereira's side in the Premier League but now two wins from two against top-flight opposition in the Carabao Cup. Welcome relief.
