Dominance Without Finish Haunts Manchester United

United enjoyed 56 percent possession and mounted constant pressure, registering 23 shots, including seven on target. However, their lack of cutting edge proved costly as they found the net only once.

The hosts took the lead when Joshua Zirkzee’s effort deflected off Shadislav Krejci and crossed the line, giving United a slice of fortune. But Wolves responded before halftime, with Krejci heading in an equaliser from a corner.

Wolves, despite seeing only 46 percent of the ball, managed 12 attempts on goal and defended resolutely for long periods.

Late Drama, Same Outcome for United

Both sides pushed for a winner in the second half. Wolves thought they had taken the lead late on through Patrick Dorgu, but the goal was ruled out for offside. Manchester United also missed clear opportunities, unable to convert pressure into goals.

With several key players unavailable due to injury and absence, United’s performance once again highlighted their inconsistency. The final whistle confirmed another missed opportunity, as bottom-placed Wolves left Old Trafford with a valuable point.

The draw further underlined United’s ongoing problems, as murmurs of frustration from the stands reflected growing concern over the team’s current direction.
