After a streak of 11 consecutive defeats since October, Wolves finally won their third point in the Premier League this season. The team that "gives" points to the "Wolfs" is Man United.
In the context of a weak force, Ruben Amorim's team took the lead but could not preserve their advantage, closing 2025 with an unacceptable result.
Only getting 1 point against an opponent who is almost certain of relegation, the "Red Devils" face the risk of being left behind in the top 4 race. In this round, Liverpool can noi the gap with M.U, while Chelsea has chia diem with Leeds.
Lacking many key players, Man United struggled to start the game and had to rely on a lucky situation to score the opening goal. In the 27th minute, Ayden Heaven broke through and then passed to Joshua Zirkzee to shoot from close to the penalty area. The ball hit a defender, changed direction and flew into the net in the helplessness of goalkeeper Jose Sa.
The joy of the home fans did not last long. Right before the first half ended, Wolves equalized after a dangerous header by Ladislav Krejci.
In the second half, M.U focused on attacking but could not penetrate the crowded defense of the away team. After a shot that hit the wooden frame in the first half, Benjamin Sesko had two more chances but both missed. In the 90+1 minute, when Patrick Dorgu put the ball into the net, the goal was disallowed for offside.
The nightmare almost fell on Old Trafford if Senne Lammens had not made an excellent save against Krejci's close-range shot. In the rebound situation, the Man United goalkeeper also managed to reach out and push the ball out of the player's reach.
