Half-Time Report: Wolverhampton Wanderers in front against Leeds United

Nouha Dicko has scored twice to give Wolverhampton Wanderers a 2-1 half-time lead over Leeds United in this evening's Championship encounter at Molineux.

The hosts enjoyed the better start to the game, but it was Leeds who made the breakthrough on 11 minutes when Charlie Taylor slotted in his first goal for the club after capitalising on Kevin McDonald's botched clearance.

Wolves threatened to get level soon after, though Bakary Sako's effort from 10 yards had little power behind it and was easily saved by Marco Silvestri.

The home side managed to bag themselves an equaliser with 18 minutes on the clock as Dicko arrived at the back post to convert Benik Afobe's mishit shot.

Despite dragging themselves back into the match, Wolves struggled to put pressure on Leeds during the remainder of the half. James Henry saw his tame effort held by Silvestri before the midfielder blocked Taylor's drive at the other end.

However, Kenny Jackett's side found the net again in first-half stoppage time as Dicko smashed a clinical finish past Silvestri after being set free down the right.
