Manchester United suffered a third successive defeat as relegation-threatened Wolves climbed out of third place in the Premier League with a 2-0 home win over Ruben Amorim’s side.
Seeking to recover from his humiliating defeat against Bournemouth on the weekend, United was frustrated in nebulae situations through an aspect of wolves with renewed confidence, the new Chief Vitor Perira.
The game was turned on its head just two minutes into the second half when Bruno Fernandes was given his third red card of the season after a second yellow card for a foul on Nelson Semedo.
The home team took advantage soon after when attacker Mattheus Cunha scored directly from a corner.
And as the visitors looked for an equalizer in the closing stages, Hwang Hee-chan scored on half-time to save the Wolves.

But that will be enough for us today. Wonderful victory for Wolves one more afternoon for Amorim’s team.
You can pay attention to Metro to know all the repercussions of this game and the rest of the action day of the boxing, but until the next TIMEARRAY . . . Good evening!
The hectic Christmas schedule continues for both sides. United dace a tough test at home against in-form Newcastle on Monday, while Wolves visit Tottenham the day before.
“Of course, when you lose, when we don’t win, it’s a step backwards. It was complicated with the delivery. The purpose was similar to Tottenham.
“Then we tried. Even with a guy down, we tried and I think we were close to something, but then the wolves scored the second. Then, in the end, we tried everything and the transition 2-0. For our part, let us continue.
The first purpose is a failure: “I think he can’t get to the ball. He tries to succeed on the ball and some guys don’t even look at the ball, but I don’t need to focus on it. I think what’s smart is that we were close to the purpose, even ten.
“I feel very satisfied. Vitor arrived here very much and we feel it. We join together, we suffer together, we write down together. It’s a lot, in the stadium you can see how satisfied they are.
On the impact of the new manager: ‘He came here with a lot of energy. He said that he dreamed of coming to the Premier League and we saw this, we can see this energy. We can come with these kind of things.’
On his goal from the corner: ‘I was shooting, we train to shoot! The second one I had this luck and scored the goal!’
United’s new boss becomes the first manager to lose as many as five of his first 10 games in charge of the club in all competitions since Walter Crickmer in January 1932 (6/10).
That makes 3 defeats out of 3 for Amorim’s United.
Five losses in their last seven.
Lots of painting to do.
More misery for United but a huge result for Wolves in front of their home fans.
And that will seal it!
United has committed many bodies ahead and the wolves scored through a purpose after a balloon ahead.
It’s a two-on-one for the house and Cunha doesn’t make any mistakes, slipping it to Hwang, who shoots past Onana to put the result without a doubt.
