Scott McTominay’s first goal for the club had been cancelled out by Diogo Jota only for United to be forced to play the last half-hour shorthanded following Ashley Young’s dismissal. Booked for a foul on Diogo Jota five minutes earlier, Young saw a second yellow for an even worse challenge on the same Wolves player and United were about to suffer a worse fate. Irresistible for 25 minutes, United might have been three-up, had to settle for one, and then threatened to fold under the first bit of serious pressure they were placed under in the entire game. The Scottish midfielder did not hesitate, unleashing an unstoppable 25-yard shot that flew beyond the dive of Rui Patricio before nestling in the foot of the Wolves goal. WOLVES (3-5-2):Rui Patricio 7; Bennett 7, Cody 7, Boly 6; Doherty 6, Dendoncker 6, Neves 6 (Saiss 83), Moutinho 7, Vinagre 7 (Jonny 75, 6); Jimenez 8, Jota 9 (Cavaleiro 72, 6).
