Walsall 0

Wolves 4 (Elliott 10, Eastwood 60, 77, Kyle 63)

In atrocious conditions Wolves eased their way to a 4-0 victory over Walsall in Darren Wrack's testimonial match.

A disappointingly small crowd and a torrential downfall greeted the teams as they took to the field at the Banks's Stadium.

Kevin Betsy tested Graham Stack with an early long-range shot that the keeper took confidently and Wolves' first attempt at goal came from Stephen Ward who was narrowly wide of the far post with a cross-shot.

Wanderers took the lead in the tenth minute when Stephen Elliott took a through pass from Darron Gibson and sent an angled lob over Clayton Ince into the net.

Darren Potter almost added a second with a first-time shot from 22-yards that flew past the post before Ince palmed away a long-range drive from Mark Little that skidded across the saturated surface.

Freddy Eastwood then had two shots in as many minutes with his first attempt, from outside the box, going wide and Ince catching the second above his head.

After 30 minutes Gibson, who had gone down in the centre circle, limped off to be replaced by Michael Gray.

The Saddlers then enjoyed their best spell of the game with Stack having to beat away a drive from Betsy before he parried a close range effort from Alex Nicholls. Betsy completely mistimed his header from the loose ball but it dropped nicely at Tommy Mooney's feet only for the veteran striker to shoot wide.

Ince made a good save to deny Stephen Ward who had taken Eastwood's through pass and then the Walsall keeper made an even better stop to keep out a low curling shot from Eastwood after good work from Elliott had opened up the home defence.

Half-Time: Walsall 0 Wolves 1

Kevin Kyle replaced Elliott Bennett after the break whilst only Wrack remained on for the Saddlers who made ten changes to their line-up. Included in their number were several former Saddlers stars including former Molineux favourite Don Goodman.

Gray forced a fine save from West Ham's Jimmy Walker after taking a return pass from Elliott before Wolves went two up on the hour mark.

Neill Collins made a surging run through the middle before slipping a short pass to Eastwood who thumped a shot past Walker from the edge of the box.

Three minutes later Walker half stopped Kyle's close range shot but he couldn't stop the ball from rolling into the net for Wolves' third after Stephen Ward had supplied a low cross from the left.

Kyle powered a header narrowly wide after a Gray corner before Eastwood struck again on 77 minutes. The striker took a pass from Elliott and held off a challenge before firing a low shot into the far corner of the net.

Twice in the dying minutes substitute Bertrand Bossu denied Eastwood a hat-trick - the French keeper plucked a header out of the air and then saved a low shot from the Welsh striker.
