Man United player ratings vs Wolves as one player scores 2/10 in awful defeat

Man United were beaten by Wolves in the Premier League on Boxing Day and here are how the players rated at Molineux.

Manchester United were beaten 2-0 by Wolves in the Premier League on Boxing Day.

Neither side managed to find a goal in the first half with Andre Onana and Jose Sa producing a couple of decent saves.

United were reduced to ten men shortly after the break as Bruno Fernandes picked up a second yellow card for a foul on Nélson Semedo.

Wolves took the lead direct from a corner as Matheus Cunha’s delivery floated over Onana and into the back of the net. Hwang Hee-chan scored in stoppage time to make it 2-0.

Here are how the players rated at Molineux:

Andre Onana

Made a first-half save from Jorgen Strand Larsen but his winter of discontent continued with another howler from Matheus Cunha’s corner. 3

Leny Yoro

Booked early on for hauling down Matheus Cunha but was not greatly deterred. Substituted when United chased the game. 6

Harry Maguire

One of the few who matches Wolves’ physicality but they bypassed any of United’s aerially-adept players for the decisive goal. 6

Lisandro Martinez

A first half performance that suggested he was back to his old self, he was powerless to do anything about Onana’s incompetence. 6

Noussair Mazraoui

Crossed for a good early opening that Bruno Fernandes and Rasmus Hojlund wasted. Moved into the back three for most of the second half. 6

Manuel Ugarte

Started well but his influence faded as United got worse and he received a needless booking that triggers a one-match suspension. 6

Kobbie Mainoo

Played two passes into touch that were so poor the natives sarcastically cheered them. At a ground where he scored the winner in February, he looked a shadow of that player. 4

Diogo Dalot

Had a shot easily saved by Jose Sa in what was one of a handful of attempts on target of note from United. Skinned by Nelson Semedo for a disallowed goal. 5

Amad

Far too frivolous with the ball and seemed to be caught between two stools as he hugged the touchline yet was purportedly a playmaker. 5

Bruno Fernandes

Booked for cynically upending Matheus Cunha and needlessly fouled Nelson Semedo for a second yellow. Let his teammates down again. 2

Rasmus Hojlund

Another boy-against-men performance from the striker, who was so easily bullied he occasionally dropped deep to avoid duels. 4

Subs

Antony

The only forward who probed Wolves. 6

Casemiro

Came on after United went down to ten men and 1-0 down. 5

Christian Eriksen

Didn’t have the desired impact. 5

Alejandro Garnacho

Introduced with ten minutes to play. 4

Joshua Zirkzee

Came on with Garnacho. 5

Manager

Limited rotation but it failed to jolt a bunch of players who jar with his 3-4-3 formation. Let down by Fernandes. It’s easy to see why Amorim wanted to take over in the summer. 5
