Shrewsbury Town gave Wolverhampton Wanderers another fright as the two sides played out their FA Cup fourth round replay on Tuesday night.

The League One strugglers had been 2-0 up in the first game before Wolves fought back to claim a 2-2 draw, and they were at it again last night.

Wolves took the lead at Molineux last night, with Matt Doherty opening the scoring, before James Bolton and Josh Laurent scored to put Shrewsbury in front.

Doherty equalised for Wolves, before Ivan Cavaleiro sealed a 3-2 win in the second half, meaning the Premier League side advance after a couple of scares against their neighbours.

Shrewsbury will at least hope to take their valiant performances into their league form, given that they are second bottom in League One, one point adrift of safety.

One of their key players on the night was midfielder Greg Docherty, who scored in the first game between the two sides and continued his fine season last night.

The Scot, on loan from Rangers, has hit eight goals and nine assists this season, with the loan move really paying dividends for the 22-year-old.

Shrews fans have been taking to Twitter to call Docherty ‘unreal’ and ‘outstanding’, naming him as their man of the match, and one Wolves fan even sent him a message hailing his performance, backing him for first-team football at Rangers next season.
