"And a somewhat toxic atmosphere at Molineux was not helped when United took the lead soon after with a disastrous goal. Andre dallied on the ball in midfield, Casemiro tackled him and the ball ran on to former Wolves forward Matheus Cunha. He squared the ball for Bruno Fernandes, who slipped in the rain but still had time to get up and somehow squeeze the ball through Sam Johnstone and in."
"Somehow, Wolves rallied before the break and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde ended a run of 539 Premier League minutes without a goal with a first goal under Edwards in first-half stoppage time. David Moller Wolfe did well on the left to cut the ball back and Bellegarde slid in to find the bottom corner. Respite was brief though, and United had already broken through an inexplicably high Wolves line twice in the second half before Bryan Mbeumo restored their lead."
"Mason Mount then also ran in behind a square Wolves defence to volley in a beautiful dinked ball over the top from Fernandes for the goal of the night. The traffic was one way, with some home fans leaving with half an hour left, as United rained in 27 shots on goal. There was time for a handball to be awarded against Yerson Mosquera for handball and Fernandes drilled home from the spot. Loud boos rang out"
Wolves have collected only two points from 15 Premier League games and sit 13 points adrift of safety after a eighth consecutive defeat, making relegation almost certain and ensuring they will be bottom at Christmas. Many fans protested by staying outside Molineux until the 15th minute, creating a toxic atmosphere. Manchester United opened the scoring after Andre dallied, Casemiro dispossessed him and Matheus Cunha supplied Bruno Fernandes, who squeezed the ball past Sam Johnstone. Jean-Ricner Bellegarde briefly equalised in first-half stoppage time. United dominated the second half, scored through Bryan Mbeumo and Mason Mount, and added a penalty by Fernandes amid heavy boos.
