Anthony Martial continued his bright start to the season with another goal.
His landmark 50th goal for Manchester United was enough to earn a 1-1 draw at Molineux.
Martial latched onto Marcus Rashford’s pass, firing it first time into the back of the net, giving Rui Patricio no chance.
The Frenchman’s goal was what United deserved after dominating the opening half hour.
He could have had another goal just before half time, when he took one touch too many after finding himself with an opening.
Martial scored United’s second against Chelsea last week, and is clearly enjoying being back in a central role, complete with the number nine shirt.
This version of Martial is reminiscent of the player who lit up the Premier League when he signed for United.
But his off the ball movement and work rate in this game was far better than anything he has shown at United so far.
A long range equaliser from Ruben Neves gave Wolves a point.
But Paul Pogba could have won it, missing a second half penalty.
