Analysis: Wolves 2-0 Everton

This was a much-changed Everton side from that which won at Wolves in the league last month but, fresh from derby disappointment against Liverpool at the weekend, they have now seen one avenue for a trophy dry up before the end of September.

David Moyes made seven changes but the underwhelming Thierno Barry failed to take his chance, with the £27m summer signing's biggest impact a booking for petulantly kicking the ball into the advertising hoardings.

It is 30 years since they last lifted major silverware, the 1995 FA Cup - and this was another missed opportunity.
