Half-Time Report: Benik Afobe, Nouha Dicko strikes put Wolverhampton Wanderers in control

Goals from Benik Afobe and Nouha Dicko give Wolverhampton Wanderers a 2-0 lead at the break of their clash against Rotherham United at Molineux.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are in control of their Championship clash against Rotherham United as they hold a 2-0 lead at the break at Molineux.

The home side edged the opening stages and could have taken the lead when James Henry was afforded space and time outside the box, but his strike flew just past the post.

Rotherham hit back and Adam Hammill should have done a lot better with a headed effort as he latched onto a cross from Matt Derbyshire, only to nod the ball into the arms of Tomasz Kuszczak.

Kenny Jackett's men took the lead in the 21st minute when Kevin McDonald picked out the run of Benik Afobe through the middle, and the striker showed composure to control the ball and fire his shot past Adam Collin.

Wolves doubled their lead minutes later as Afobe turned provider to release Nouha Dicko, who took a touch to get the ball out of his feet before burying a strike past Collin.

The visitors came close to getting a goal back before the break when Derbyshire glanced a header at goal. His effort hit the base of the post, and the striker was unable to turn the rebound past Kuszczak.
