Manchester United 2–0 Wolves - United Back To Winning Ways

Manchester United beat Wolves at Old Trafford to get back to winning ways after their defeat away at West Ham last week. The Red Devils faced a stubborn Wolves side at home, who are already safe from relegation. Manchester started the game well against Julen Lopetegui’s men, dominating the play and creating some chances.

Antony was in the thick of it early on, and he should have at least scored a goal with the early chances he had. The Brazilian winger missed a good chance with his left foot on a break and also a free header inside the box. However, he turned provider for Martial, who was back amongst the goals in the Premier League at Old Trafford towards the end of an injury laden campaign. Bruno Fernandes created the chance for the opening goal for Manchester United in what was another top showing from the Portuguese chief creator.

Manchester United had a series of clear chances to increase their lead in the second half, but they were denied by the brilliance of Daniel Bentley in goal for Wolves. A perfectly executed late counter-attack secured all the 3 points for Manchester United, with Alejandro Garnacho coming on to seal the win with a controlled finish on the counter.

Alejandro Garnacho has missed the last two months of action in the Premier League with an injury, but the young Argentine has been devastatingly effective for Manchester United off the bench most times this season, scoring important goals and having some real impact despite limited minutes.
