United started the game strong with a goal early in the 5th minute of the match through Marcus Rashford, assisted by Rasmus Hojlund. Despite an overflow of fouls from both teams, United dominated the pitch with a second goal in the 23rd minute by Hojlund, who turned from provider to goalscorer, with an assist from Luke Shaw.

The home team, Wolverhampton Wanderers, however, took longer to find their footing as they only managed to score their first goal in the 71st minute of the game and their second in the last 15 minutes.

Manchester United earned three yellow cards, two of which occurred in the second half of the game, while Wolverhampton Wanderers were shown two yellow cards with the second one occurring very late into the match.

Neither team, however, received any red cards which signifies that despite the high number of fouls (10 for Wolverhampton and 8 for United), no excessively reckless behavior was penalized severely.

In terms of offsides, United was caught offside twice in the competition, while Wolverhampton made no such errors.
