Manchester United v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Premier League
Moutinho scored a screamer to equalize

Wolverhampton Wanderers were one of the founding members of the League and have a lot of history attached to their football. Yet, their time at the topmost tier of English football has been few and far between and only fans older than 20 might even remember their last campaign there.

This time though, they look the real deal. They may not have an expensively-assembled squad but they do have talent in abundance. Ruben Neves, Joao Moutinho, Adama Traore are just some of the names that strike you and they have helped them achieve their best-ever start to a season.

Against United, they never looked under the pump. Old Trafford is intimidating for any team and with the form, their opponents were in, Wolves were expected to be rolled over but they never looked like they would cave in.

They created 10 chances and had 8 shots on target, of which they scored one. They were denied twice in the first half by a superhuman David De Gea and few could argue that they deserved the goal when it finally came.
