Captain Bruno Fernandes admitted that Manchester United did not know what to expect from Wolves following their 1-0 win at Old Trafford on Monday night.
United got their 2023/24 Premier League campaign off to a winning start thanks to a 76th-minute header from Raphael Varane. The Frenchman rose highest inside the box to connect with Aaron Wan-Bissaka's centre.
United were second best all evening and would have been severely punished had Wolves brought their shooting boots to M16. They squandered a whole host of chances and had a very strong penalty claim waved away in second-half injury time after goalkeeper Andre Onana clattered striker Sasa Kalajdzic.
Wolves were keen to impress on their first outing under new boss Gary O'Neil, who was appointed as Julen Lopetegui's successor last week, and they did more than enough to impress their travelling army of supporters.
