After a humbling 3-0 loss to Bournemouth at Old Trafford, United entered the Wolves game aiming to restore faith among their fans. Despite their ambitions, the match remained goalless at halftime, with both teams struggling to find a breakthrough. The second half, however, spiralled into a disaster for United. Bruno Fernandes, wearing the captain's armband, was shown a second yellow card for a reckless challenge on Nelson Semedo, leaving his team a man down. Referee Michael Oliver, with VAR’s backing, dismissed Fernandes despite his protests, further weakening United’s resolve.
