Match Report for the FA Cup 4th Round match...

FT: Watford 1-4 Wolverhampton Wanderers

GOAL, 4 mins: Andy Keogh gave Wolves an early lead. He latched on to a long ball from Hennessey and beat Richard Lee with a well-taken half-volley.

GOAL, 57 mins: Wolves, effective on the counter-attack all afternoon pounced as a Watford move broke down. After a neat one-two with Keogh, Elliot cooly chipped the ball over the advancing keeper.

GOAL, 67 mins: Matt Jarvis continued to grow into the player Wolves fans have wanted to see. And it was his pinpoint cross that left Jay Bothroyd with the simple task to tap home.

GOAL, 70 mins: Thinking a free-kick should have been given the Wolves defence stopped, which allowed O'Toole to convert from an Ellington flick-on.

GOAL, 90 mins: Keogh grabbed his second in injury time, as he cut inside Mariappa and completed the scoring.

I had expected at best a tie for the Wolves today and was pleasnalty surprised.

These team as the talent all they need to do is use it.

How come they can't do this on a regular basis?

Go Wolves, go!

Ohhh !!!! you've scored more than the Baggies iin one game ... Big up the Massive of Staffordshire. I can't belive that that was a major shock to anyones system, since a lot of teams have been there and won. At least we had a bannna skin that we avoided with ease not like Cambridge who run you to the last minute. so come on FA Draw those balls and give us another Black Country Derby in the next round. ok

I don't know why Wolves and Albion are always at each others throats, it's childish. It would be great to meet in the final and enjoy what is afterall the most prestigous club competition in the World.

Above all it is Wolves League possition that should be paramount. We want Premiership status next season not in another 5 years or so.
