Half-Time Report: Wolverhampton Wanderers edging Sheffield Wednesday

Wolverhampton Wanderers are leading Sheffield Wednesday 1-0 at half time in Tuesday evening's Championship clash at Molineux.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are leading Sheffield Wednesday 1-0 in this evening's Championship clash at Molineux.

There was action from the off as both sides probed forward in a bid to strike an early opener, Benik Afobe firing just wide from a corner seven minutes in.

The Owls countered moments later as Chris Maguire tried an effort from 25 yards out, but his slip as he lined up his shot caused the ball to soar way off target.

Wolves were given a great chance to take the lead when Nouha Dicko was tripped in the box by Claude Dielna, prompting the referee to give a penalty.

Bakary Sako stepped up and duly sent Keiren Westwood the wrong way from the spot to put his side a goal to the good.

The action continued to come following the opener as the Wolves front line continued to pepper the Owls area, while at the other end Lewis McGugan lined up a shot on the edge of the Wolves box before dragging his low effort wide.

Wednesday then came within a whisker of equalising when Jacques Maghoma's header in the 36th minute was only thwarted by an impressive Tomasz Kuszczak save.
