McCarthy: Win justifies selection

Mick McCarthy felt his team selection was justified after Wolves advanced to the Carling Cup third round with a last-gasp extra-time victory over Southend.

McCarthy made 10 adjustments for the match from the Wanderers side that drew 1-1 at Everton on Saturday, with teenagers Sam Winnall and Danny Batth handed their senior debuts for the Black Country club and Ashley Hemmings given his first start.
