Summary: After a dominant first quarter of the game, Edwards managed to put Wolves into the lead from McDonald's through ball. Early on in the second half, Evans doubled Wolves' lead with another rebound, this time after Rudd had parried Henry's shot away. Quiet from Preston after Wolves' second goal, and only ever threatened from set-pieces. A clean sheet for McCarey, and three points to the good boys.
Manager quotes:
Kenny Jackett: "We have got quite a determined and confident bunch but in the end it is only getting wins that can help breed that confidence. I am pleased with 2-0 today but still think we can improve and put more of our chances away and get more goals. We are in third spot and that’s not where we want to be – we want to be higher."
Simon Grayson: "It’s nice to play nice football at times, but sometimes you have got to get the opposition turned and facing their own goal and that’s what they did to us at times.
They had our back three and back four running towards our own goal and putting us under pressure, we didn’t do that enough today, we were too predictable, too much football played in front of their back four and in the midfield where they were very strong."
