Everton vs Wolves: Ashley Young nets free kick in 4-0 rout
Ashley Young became Everton's oldest ever goalscorer and Craig Dawson twice put the ball into his own net as the Merseyside club thumped Wolves 4-0 in the Premier League at Goodison Park on Wednesday.
At the age of 39 and 148 days, right back Young also became the oldest player to convert a free kick in the Premier League with a sumptuous first-half effort in what was his 50th goal in the English top flight.
Orel Mangala found the back of the net for the first time in Everton colours before the unfortunate Dawson scored a brace of own goals to compound the woes of Wolves, who have now conceded 36 times in 14 games this season, comfortably the most in the division.
Everton moved up to 15th place in the table with 14 points from as many matches and Wolves slipped to second bottom with nine points as the pressure grows on manager Gary O'Neil.
