On the 1st, Manchester United secured a hard-fought victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers with a score of 4-3, thanks to young talent Mainoo's goal in stoppage time. Meanwhile, West Ham United drew 1-1 with Bournemouth, maintaining a one-point lead over Manchester United. They currently sit in sixth place on the Premier League standings.
Playing away, Manchester United had a perfect start on the day. In the fifth minute, Rashford scored with a right-footed curved shot. Seventeen minutes later, Hojbjerg's follow-up shot extended the lead to 2-0.
In the second half, Casemiro committed a foul in the penalty area, giving Wolves a penalty opportunity, which was successfully converted by Sarabia. However, McTominay quickly scored with a header from a corner kick, re-establishing Manchester United's two-goal lead.
Unexpectedly, Wolves not only pulled one back in the 85th minute through a corner kick and a scramble in the penalty area but also swiftly countered in the fifth minute of stoppage time. Neto's powerful shot leveled the score.
However, the game didn't end there. Two minutes later, the 18-year-old Mainoo dribbled past defenders and scored with a push shot into the far corner, securing his first Premier League goal and helping Manchester United achieve a dramatic late win.
On the same day, playing at home, West Ham United faced an early setback. Debutant Phillips directly passed the ball to the opponent's forward, Solanke, in the third minute, and the latter easily scored. However, West Ham United managed to equalize the score in the 61st minute through a penalty, securing their third consecutive draw. |
