Vitor Pereira leads Wolves' resurgence as Man Utd continue to struggle

Manchester United’s struggles continued in a bruising Boxing Day defeat at Vitor Pereira’s resurgent Wolves as Matheus Cunha scored one and provided another after Bruno Fernandes saw red.

Gary O’Neil’s successor followed up Sunday’s 3-0 victory at Leicester with another impressive win as the Portuguese’s first match at Molineux ended with a huge boost in their bid to stay up.

Wolves deserved their 2-0 win, exposing the set piece frailties of Ruben Amorim’s stumbling side as Cunha beat Andre Onana directly from a corner shortly after Fernandes’ third sending off the season.
