Half-Time Report: Bakary Sako brace helps earn Wolverhampton Wanderers lead

A first-half brace from Bakary Sako helps Wolverhampton Wanderers earn a 3-0 lead over Swindon Town.

Wolverhampton Wanderers hold a comfortable 3-0 lead over Swindon Town at half time in League One this evening.

The visitors took the lead in under 10 minutes when Kevin McDonald found Bakary Sako, leaving the striker to head home into the top corner from close range.

Alex Pritchard almost found an instant reply for Swindon, but he saw his effort tipped away from the bottom corner by Carl Ikeme.

Wolves doubled their advantage in the 19th minute, as Sako found Nouha Dicko inside the box, firing the ball across the deck and into the bottom corner.

Michael Smith wasted a good chance for Town to pull one back when he headed over, before Ikeme did well again to get down low and keep out Pritchard's long-range effort.

Sako grabbed a brace in the 34th minute, when he collected Jack Price's pass to convert into the centre of the net.
