McCarthy delighted with Wolves’ White Hart Lane triumph

Kevin Doyle scored the only goal of the game as early as the third minute as Wolves defended brilliantly to hold on to claim a sensational win over Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.

Spurs enjoyed much of the possession but could not pose great threat to goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann and so, Harry Rednapp’s men failed to score.

McCarthy was full of praise for his players and said they deserved the win, but also thanked the Wolves away “fabulous” support.

“The players were magnificent for 96 minutes,” he told Sky Sports.

“It’s a bit of hand in glove, when we play well they (the fans) get the benefit from it and when we’re holding on we get the benefit from their fabulous support.

“We did hang on, but I think we deserved our victory.”

Doyle headed home as early as the third minute after Nenad Milijas whipped in a good cross and McCarthy praised the Serbian’s skill.

“Nenad is settling into life in the Premiership,” he added. “I don’t know how many assists he had. When you put balls in like that its difficult to defend.

“And Doyle, we bought him to score goals and he’s done just that today.

“If you don’t get a good delivery you’ve got no chance of scoring, he’s putting them in right on the button at the minute and we look a threat from every free-kick and corner.”

McCarthy admitted that he did not even watch Wigan’s nightmare 9-1 defeat at the hands of Tottenham, believing that the result would have never had any kind of impact on his team’s visit to White Hart Lane.

“That result was a bit Disneyworld, wasn’t it,” he remarked. “Everything went right.

“I would imagine every time the ball went in the box it ended up in Wigan’s net and Wigan responded properly and beat Sunderland the week after.

“I never looked at it, I never read the report from it. I watched them against Manchester United and I watched them against Everton.”
