31 December 2022 at 15:23 Benched for rule violation – match winner Marcus Rashford was, to the surprise of many, on the bench from the start against Wolverhampton. Still, it was he who became the hero for the Red Devils. Before the match, Erik ten Hag said he was benched for disciplinary reasons. For United, they pushed and pushed against a Wolverhampton side that defended heroically. At half-time, United’s coach, Erik ten Hag, felt compelled to put the English superstar on, and it was wise. Just over a quarter of an hour before the end, Rashford dribbled in from the left and knocked the ball into the corner. Barely ten minutes later, Rashford thought he had scored his second, but the goal was canceled via VAR by hand. In extra time, Raul Jimenez had a great opportunity at a corner, but David de Gea saved the three points for United. Manchester United thus climbs past Tottenham and up to fourth place in the Premier League.
