Manchester United climbed the Premier League table to sixth place following a dominant 4-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux, with captain Bruno Fernandes achieving a perfect 10/10 rating for his brace and overall influential performance.
According to a report from the Daily Express, Manchester United secured a comprehensive 4-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux, a result which moved them within one point of the Champions League qualification spots.
The performance was characterized by a potent attack and influential midfield play, led by captain Bruno Fernandes.
The player ratings highlight a night where the offense shone brightest for the visitors.
The defensive unit, despite conceding one goal, showed periods of solidity. Goalkeeper Senne Lammens (6/10) was largely untested, facing no accurate shots until the goal, which was too powerfully struck into the bottom corner for the Belgian to save.
Luke Shaw (7/10) stood out defensively, executing one brilliant challenge in the first half to launch a counter-attack and another vital tackle to win the ball back for United’s second goal.
Ayden Heaven (6/10) performed adequately as a 19-year-old in the center of the back three, coping well with the demands of Premier League football.
Noussair Mazraoui (6/10) made a critical headed clearance inside the box, defusing a dangerous moment when Wolves were mounting pressure around the hour mark.
Diogo Dalot (7/10) was offensively sharp, delivering a fantastic run and pass to assist the second goal, though he could have done more to prevent the initial cross for the Wolves equalizer.
The midfield and forward players were decisive.
Casemiro (6/10) had a productive shift, regaining possession from Andre before the opener and providing a timely clearance on a first-half cross.
Amad Diallo (5/10) looked threatening with the ball but was deemed to be sleeping defensively, losing his marker for the Wolves goal, and showed poor attacking decision-making in one move where he should have passed.
Bruno Fernandes (10/10) was the outstanding figure, recovering from a slip to score the opener with an improvised finish, setting up Mbeumo with a great pass, starting the move for the second goal, and netting a second via a “class penalty.”
Everything positive flowed through him.
Matheus Cunha (7/10) provided unselfish play to set up Fernandes’ first goal and delivered a perfect through ball for Dalot’s assist.
Bryan Mbeumo (7/10) made a simple finish to put United 2-1 up, although he was booked for a late tackle after a turnover.
Operating as a false nine, Mason Mount (8/10) secured the decisive third goal with a stylish finish following a smart run, displaying lovely technique and completing 27 of his 28 passes.
Substitutes Lisandro Martinez (6/10) and Leny Yoro (6/10) helped see out the victory, while Kobbie Mainoo (N/A), Joshua Zirkzee (N/A), and Patrick Dorgu (N/A) also gained minutes.
