When asked if it was harder than it needed to be, United captain Fernandes added on TNT Sports: “A little bit, but we knew Wolves would counter us. In the first half we controlled it well, pressed high, counter press was really good. Second half, they changed it a little bit.

“They were a little bit more dynamic on their right hand side… making overlaps that create a lot of dangers. When we attacked, they could always counter and we know that they have a lot of pace up front and players who can hold the ball and one v one.

“From the goal, they gained more confidence obviously with their fans pushing for them and they thought they could come back in the game. They did, but in the end we got the result and that’s the most important thing.

“We could have been more ruthless in some chances like the last one in the first half, I should have squared the ball better to Garnacho and it could be a one v one with the keeper for him. Moments like that, we have to do better.

“At 2-0 up, we were controlling the game and we could keep the ball and everything but in these kind of games, you have to kill the game. If they can gain confidence in getting counters and everything, they will get back into the game.”
