Battling Display Pleases Unsy

David Unsworth says his Under-23s side learned an important lesson as they battled to a 1-1 draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League Cup.

On a chilly evening at Telford’s New Bucks Head, the hosts took the lead nine minutes before the interval as Will Randall found the net with a 20-yard drive.

But Liam Walsh rescued a point with a late penalty to earn a well-deserved point and preserve the Toffees’ place at the top of Group D with two rounds of fixtures to play.

Speaking after the game, coach Unsworth was satisfied with his side’s approach on a night that “was not for total football”.
