Scott McTominay might not be the first name on the team sheet, but his performances over the last few weeks have been under the radar. The Scottish International had more than a decent outing against Paris Saint Germain in the Champions League and replicated that sort of energetic performance to push for the third spot against Wolves.

The midfielder started the game in a positive manner by keeping the team tick and got the reward when he smashed the ball from the outside of the box to open his scoring account for the club and lead the game. He proved to be the link between the defense and attack with his long bursting runs by beating the opponent's midfield.

He nearly added his second goal of the game when Rui Patricio made an extraordinary save in the second half to deny the midfielder. McTominay will feel hard done by to end up on the losing side.
