Overview
- Everton defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 in the Carabao Cup thanks to Carlos Alcaraz’s late goal set up by Tyler Dibling.
- Dibling combined creative and defensive play, supplied the decisive pass and won almost 60% of the club’s player-of-the-match vote.
- Goalkeepers Jordan Pickford and João Virgínia made key saves that kept the tie tight and preserved Everton’s clean sheet.
- Manager David Moyes faces a thin forward line, so Dibling’s performance offers a timely option from the club’s young players for first-team minutes.
- The win continues Everton’s unbeaten start under Moyes and highlights how cup rotation can create chances for academy and young signings to change their standing at the club.
