  • After creating several good chances in the first half, Wanderers has a goal harshly ruled out for offside when Kevin Nolan turned in Diouf's free-kick from close range.



    But just five minutes later, it was Diouf who capitalised on an awful clearance fom Stephen Kelly to keep his cool from six yards.



    It got worse for the visitors, as on 77 minutes, Johan Djourou sent a throw in back towards Maik Taylor without looking, to allow Anelka to nip in, round the keeper and tap the ball home.



    In injury time, the French striker scored his 11th of the season, played in by Nolan, he slotted the ball past Taylor to send the Reebok crowd home happy.
