"Wolves produced a spirited performance at Old Trafford to claim a hard-earned 1-1 draw with Manchester United. The Premier League's bottom side ended a run of 11 straight defeats, after Ladislav Krejci's header cancelled out Joshua Zirkzee's first top-flight home goal in over a year. United broke the deadlock in the 27th minute, as Zirkzee cleverly turned away from his marker before his shot deflected in via Krejci."
"After Benjamin Sesko headed a decent opportunity against the post from close range, Krejci atoned for his misfortune at the other end just before half-time, finding the far corner with a well-placed header. Both sides went close to edging their noses in front after the break. Jose Sa did brilliantly to claw Yerson Mosquera's loose header off his goal-line, while the latter and Krejci were denied in quick succession by Senne Lammens at the other end."
"Data Debrief: More unwanted history for Wolves Wolves have avoided equalling the record for the most Premier League defeats during a single calendar year, set by Ipswich Town (26) in 1994. Nevertheless, their points-per-game ratio of 0.76 in 2025 (29 points in 38 games) is the worst by a team in a full year of Premier League football since Huddersfield Town in 2018 (23 in 37 games, 0.62)."
Wolves earned a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford, ending an 11-game losing streak. Joshua Zirkzee put Manchester United ahead in the 27th minute when his shot deflected in via Ladislav Krejci. Krejci equalised just before half-time with a well-placed header into the far corner. Both teams had late chances, including Benjamin Sesko hitting the post and key saves from Jose Sa and Senne Lammens. A 90th-minute rebound by Patrick Dorgu was disallowed for offside. Wolves' 2025 statistics show a 0.76 points-per-game ratio and several unwanted historical records for winless runs and goals conceded.
