Anthony Martial superbly scored his second goal of the season from Marcus Rashford’s pass to put Man Utd 1-0 up on 27 minutes.

Ruben Neves’s sensational goal and Rui Patricio’s penalty save from Paul Pogba earned Wolverhampton Wanderers a 1-1 draw against Manchester United.

Martial nearly added a second just before half-time when he skipped past Willy Boly before standing on the ball when he was in a shooting position.

Wolves’ Raul Jimenez hit the post with a header on 52 minutes, but three minutes later they levelled when Neves brilliantly curled the ball in off the crossbar from outside the penalty area.

Pogba had an opportunity to secure victory for Man Utd when he was fouled by Conor Coady, but his penalty was saved by Wolves goalkeeper Patricio with 22 minutes left.

I think Pogba might be the penalty taker and Rashford took it off him last week. That’s then caused a problem this week. It isn’t right. We don’t come on air tonight and ask each other which pieces of analysis we’re doing – we decide before we come on. They should decide in the dressing room – it’s embarrassing. This is a Manchester United penalty – this isn’t a tombola. This is not under fives football on the playground
