Manchester United Held 1-1 by Bottom Wolves After Formation Reversal

The draw sharpened scrutiny of Ruben Amorim's return to a back three following a recent back‑four win at Newcastle.

Overview

  • United were held at Old Trafford by the league’s bottom club, missing a chance to move into the top four.
  • Joshua Zirkzee put United ahead with a deflected strike before Ladislav Krejci headed in an equaliser on the stroke of half-time.
  • Wolves ended an 11-match Premier League losing streak to collect only their third point and Rob Edwards’ first point as head coach.
  • Goalkeeper Senne Lammens made vital saves, including a second-half double stop, and Patrick Dorgu’s stoppage-time goal was ruled offside.
  • Amorim reverted to a back three and withdrew Zirkzee at half-time for tactical reasons, faced boos at full-time, and declined to blame injuries or AFCON absences.
