Wolves made the final minutes of the game thrilling, but failed to get a point

In a thrilling encounter, Kobbie Mainoo delivered a memorable match-winning goal deep into second-half stoppage time, propelling Manchester United to a dramatic 4-3 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.

This triumph marked them as the first team to emerge victorious at Molineux since September.

Marcus Rashford set the tone early, scoring a beautiful side-footed finish within the opening four-and-a-half minutes. Manchester United dominated from the start, and Rashford played a pivotal role in doubling the lead. He connected with Luke Shaw on the overlap, setting up Rasmus Højlund, who bundled in a low cross for his third goal in as many Premier League matches.

The hosts emerged revitalized, and their heightened effort paid off with a lifeline when Pedro Neto was brought down in the box with minimal contact from Casemiro. Pablo Sarabia converted the resulting penalty, setting the stage for a frenetic final 25 minutes. Scott McTominay briefly reinstated United’s two-goal lead with a header just 80 seconds into his substitute appearance, only for Kilman to narrow the gap with a close-range finish.

As the match reached a high-energy climax in stoppage time, Neto seized an opportunity on the break, catching Onana off guard with a near-post strike. However, 18-year-old Mainoo had the last say, displaying remarkable skill beyond his years as he curled in a shot, igniting celebration among the traveling supporters and securing three points for United on their journey back north.
