Ruben Neves rescued a point for Wolves by scoring a mesmerizing goal in the second half

Since their promotion, Wolves have faced United on four occasions, including this game, defeating them twice and drawing two, and still remain unbeaten against them. Today, yet again, they went toe-to-toe with one of the biggest clubs in England and were unfazed and clear in their approach. All their players performed admirably and gave a glowing account of themselves.

Raul Jimenez especially was fantastic up-front and offered a focal point for his team. He tussled and battled hard, and came agonizingly close to scoring when his looping header struck the post. Neves and Moutinho controlled the midfield and did not give their adversaries an inch in the middle of the park. The former scored a scrumptious goal from the edge of the box and put in an all-round accomplished display. Wolves embellished their record against the bigger teams with this draw but will need to improve their performances against the teams from the bottom-half if they intend on making a serious push for a place in the top six.
