Jose Mourinho after another unsuccessful game in the English Premier League changed his tone and admitted that the opponents deserved a point.
In the match between Manchester United and Wolves on Saturday, a draw was recorded. In the first half, Fred put the Red Devils ahead, but in the second half a fantastic goal by Joao Moutinho determined the draw - 1:1.
"I think this is a fair result," - the manager said immediately after the match. - They deserved this point, we deserved to be punished."
"They started the game playing better, more aggressively and intensely. I don't know for what reasons, but they were more motivated than us. In the first 10-15 minutes Wolves showed what a good team they are.
We had a poor start to the second half, during which they scored a goal. Later it was difficult - they defended with a lot of people on their half. Honestly, I expected a lot more attacking players from us. They were not creative, dynamic and mobile enough. So, Wolves did not have big defensive problems against us.
We cannot say that we did not try to push into their penalty area and score a goal. Our performance surprised me in a bad way. The episode where Wolves scored speaks for itself - we lost the ball in the middle of the field, where such mistakes should not happen. We did not deserve more than a point," criticized J. Mourinho.
Manchester United, in the eighth position, is already 8 points behind the leader.
