From the moment the enigmatic Anthony Martial scored Manchester United lived in a squeaky posterior time that lasted until Alejandro Garnacho’s 94th-minute breakaway strike.
Wolves, as they did throughout, refused to be cowed and it was from their attack that Erik ten Hag’s team countered. An Aaron Wan-Bissaka header in his area came to Luke Shaw whose hooked pass found Antony who relayed the ball to Bruno Fernandes.
The arch-playmaker’s pass was weighted perfectly into Garnacho, on as a replacement for a first appearance since a foot injury in March.
The jet-heeled youngster raced along an inside-right channel and pinged United’s second in off Dan Bentley’s left post, then raced to the Stretford End to celebrate, stripping his shirt off when doing so.
