On Monday evening, the last matches of the second round of the English Premier League were played.
In their own field, the opponents from Manchester were greeted by the Wolves footballers. Having defeated the Chelsea team in the first round, Manchester United did not experience such luck within their own walls - the match ended in a draw 1:1.
The match started positively - both teams played energetically, although no real chances were created in the first ten minutes.
In the 27th minute, the advantage was gained by the Man Utd eleven, when Anthony Martial finished off a well-organized attack with a great shot.
In the second half, Wolves started taking more risks and thus began to pose a threat to David de Gea's guarded goal. In the 55th minute, the Spaniard was already forced to pull the ball out of his own goal when Ruben Neves equalized the score with a fantastic shot from distance.
However, in the 68th minute, Man Utd had a golden opportunity to regain the advantage, but Paul Pogba failed to convert his own earned penalty kick - Rui Patricio reacted to his powerful shot.
No more dangerous episodes occurred and the teams shared the points.
