Manchester United lost 2-0 to Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux today.
Wolves were the better side before the break. Two soft yellow cards for Bruno Fernandes left the visitors a man short two minutes into the second half.
They tried to make a comeback after conceding from a corner but Wolves remained defensively resolute.
A late counter-attacking goal sealed a perfect victory for the hosts.
Andre Onana – 1/10
The Cameroon international reached a new low when he conceded a goal directly from a corner. Unacceptable.
Noussair Mazraoui – 5/10
There was nothing he could do about either goal. He looks to be more influential in the right centre-back role.
Leny Yoro – 5/10
The youngster displayed naivety, earning a booking in the fourth minute.
Harry Maguire – 6/10
Maguire kept things simple at the back and had a good battle with Jorgen Strand Larsen.
Lisandro Martinez – 7/10
The Argentine covered the ground well and made several crucial defensive actions to keep his side in the game.
Diogo Dalot – 6/10
Dalot tested Jose Sa early on with a fine curling shot. With Fernandes off the pitch, he stepped up to provide solidarity on the left flank.
Manuel Ugarte – 7/10
Another excellent outing for the midfielder, but picked up a booking for delaying a restart.
Kobbie Mainoo – 5/10
The United youngster was wayward with his passing and drew ire from Rasmus Hojlund twice.
Bruno Fernandes – 1/10
His foolishness led to a nightmare start to the second half for United. His late challenge on Nelson Semedo was needless, especially when he was already on a yellow card.
Amad Diallo – 5/10
A quiet evening for the young attacker.
Rasmus Hojlund – 3/10
Hojlund struggled to get involved due to his poor game awareness and his teammates failing to play him in at the right moments.
Casemiro – 6/10
A good cameo from the veteran midfielder.
Antony – 5/10
The Brazilian took one shot which was off target.
Christian Eriksen – 5/10
He failed to show any creativity.
Joshua Zirkzee – N/A
Alejandro Garnacho – N/A
