Mick McCarthy delighted with Wolves win

Mick McCarthy

WOLVES manager Mick McCarthy struggled to hide his delight after his side picked up all three points in a dramatic 3-2 win at Charlton Athletic.

A double from in-form Sylvan Ebanks-Blake and a late winner from Karl Henry earned Wolves a vital victory.

McCarthy said: "You could see by our reaction on the bench how much it meant to us.

"I thought we played well enough to win, perhaps not in the manner in which we nicked it. ut we were the better side in the first half and I thought we deserved to win."

Speaking about Ebanks-Blake, McCarthy added: "We have got a good player there.

"I've known about him ever since he was in Manchester United's reserves. I thought Plymouth did well to sign him and I'm pleased we managed to get him.

"But I thought the saves by Wayne Hennessey were hugely important. He's a good keeper."
