Super Eagles striker Tolu Arokodare opened his goal account for Wolverhampton Wanderers with a superb dink against Everton in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday, September 23.

The 24-year-old scored the second goal of the game as Vítor Pereira's side secured a 2-0 victory over the Toffees at Molineux.

Marshall Munetsi gave the home side the lead in the 29th minute before Arokodare added the second with just three minutes left on the clock.

The former Genk striker latched onto a perfectly timed through ball from João Gomes and finished with a delightful chip over the goalkeeper.

The victory ensured that Wolves booked their place in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.

Arokodare, who has earned five caps for Nigeria, joined Wolves in the summer on a four-year contract with an option for a further year, in a deal worth £23.4 million.
