United fail to keep Wolves from door

It is part of Manchester United and Ole Gunnar Solsjkaer’s much-vaunted “DNA” for the club to do everything with a healthy pinch of drama and, based on the way his 10 men toiled in defeat at Molineux last night, the chase for the Champions League this season will be no different.

Scott McTominay’s first goal for the club had been cancelled out by Diogo Jota only for United to be forced to play the last half-hour shorthanded following Ashley Young’s dismissal.
