The beautiful answer from Marcus Rashford

Left on the bench for reasons of "internal discipline", in the words of Erik ten Hag, Marcus Rashford responded in the most beautiful way.

The Briton, who came into play at halftime, made the difference a quarter of an hour from the end of regulation time (77th).

Served on the left side, he returned to the axis to find a relay with Bruno Fernandes in order to enter the penalty area before physically resisting an opponent, eliminating another, and deceiving the vigilance of José Sá d a right-footed strike.

A splendid goal which offered the three points to the Red Devils.

Determining David de Gea

He didn't have to do much, but he did it well.

David de Gea proved to be decisive this Saturday afternoon by making parades as magnificent as they were decisive in the second half.

The Spanish goalkeeper first repelled a distant and perfectly placed free kick from Ruben Neves shortly before the hour mark (58th).

Then, in added time (90th + 4), he made a reflex save on a powerful header from Raul Jimenez which allowed Manchester United to leave Molineux Stadium with the three points.

flops

Nelson Semedo inside

This Saturday afternoon, Nelson Semedo was not at his best.

Uncomfortable with the ball - he missed a lot of transmissions - and in the duels, he came close to costing his team a goal in the first half by completely missing a back pass to his destination by José Sá, giving Alejandro Garnacho the opportunity to open the scoring;

fortunately for the Portuguese, his goalkeeper made a superb save to preserve his cages.

He gave up his place shortly after the hour mark (65th).

Anthony Martial too tender

If he shone last Tuesday against Nottingham Forest (3-0), Anthony Martial did not confirm this Saturday afternoon against Wolverhampton.

Established at the forefront of the Mancunian attack, the Frenchman was far too tender in the aerial and ground duels.

He also showed himself to be too uninspired in his movements, his transmissions and his choices.

A match to forget for the ex-Monegasque.
