Manchester United supporters have named the man of the match after a very hard fought opening match of the season against Wolves.

Erik ten Hag‘s side won the game 1-0 thanks to a second half goal from Raphael Varane, who scored only his second goal for the club.

Wolves had enough chances to take the lead or even win the game themselves. United punished their failure to take their chances.

Andre Onana had to work hard for his clean sheet, and survived a late penalty appeal too. It was a night to remember for him.
