Joao Moutinho's second-half strike cancelled out Fred's opener, with both players scoring their first goals for their respective clubs.

18' GOAL! Man Utd 1-0 Wolves (Fred)
AGAINST THE RUN OF PLAY, UNITED TAKE THE LEAD! 1-0! It's certainly come against the run of play, but Mourinho won't care one bit as Fred scores his first goal with the club, swiveling expertly to drive a low finish into the bottom corner! That was a delicious touch from Pogba to tee him up.
53' GOAL! Man Utd 1-1 Wolves (Moutinho)
WOLVES HAVE THE GOAL THEY'VE DESERVED! 1-1! Parity restored at Old Trafford! Costa does an excellent job of guiding a pass into the centre for Jimenez, while off balance, and the striker lays it off unselfishly for Moutinho who hammers a first-time finish into the top corner from 15 yards for his first Wolves goal!
MATCH REPORT
Wolves looked vastly superior to their hosts in the early exchanges and forced David de Gea into two smart saves, as Raul Jimenez and Willy Boly threatened.
But United made the most of those let-offs and took the lead against the run of play 18 minutes in – Fred finding the bottom-left corner from 20 yards after Paul Pogba's clever disguised pass.
The Brazilian nearly got a second on the stroke of half-time, but his fine free-kick was tipped on to the post by Rui Patricio.
Wolves deservedly restored parity just after the interval, however, as Jimenez teed up Moutinho on the edge of the box and the midfielder found the top-left corner.
United huffed and puffed towards the end, with substitute Juan Mata offering a little more creativity than Alexis Sanchez, but Wolves held on, Nuno Espirito Santo successfully frustrating his "inspiration" Jose Mourinho.

am beginning to think that Mourinho intentionally gave this point to his Portuguese or drew to spite sir alex. I never saw any united player who played like a real professional player. Alex Sanchez, this guy plays like his head hit the floor during childhood. Valencia is he a real player? Valencia is a one sided player who cannot even turn his body properly. Smallings was playing like he had played daily football for continuously for the whole year. Smallings is not a real united player to me. Victor, always playing like he belongs to a league in South Africa, not energy in him, and keeps on playing so childish and backward. now comes the biggest problem; Lukaku. Lukaku is truly a woman. aside his strength, he is no better player to me. Lukakau waits for the ball to reach him, and even after receiving the ball he wastes it, what a child. for pogba, he shown once again that he is still playing with amateur footballers. Pogba felt the incompetence of his teammates and almost gave up. Pogba's outburst is because of the kind of players at united. he thought he was coming to united to play with better football players, but got shocked and I can bet you all that Pogba is still shocked for the kind of players playing for united. I still cannot see the same old Martial, Lingard was so so wasteful today. All praise to David once again for being the only better player in united squad. Luke Shaw, I give him 5.5 out of 10. Am so disappointed. united loosing point again is useless and incompetence. today I give full permission to the jackal media to have a great bite at my united

the first goal was made possible by Pogba, the second was caused by him. it's a shame. Lukaku is not a striker, he has no biz being on that pitch today. Not only did he make void all opportunities that might have been converted, his presence reduces Sanchez Lingard effort. Lukaku have no role in this squad judging by today's match. Nonsense[angry1][angry1][angry1]

Wolves are better than 60% of EPL teams at least. Nothing to feel bad about here.

sloppy defending from Luke Shaw... how could he allow the ball to be crossed by the opponent???? I mean how???? How on earth can we win titles with these defenders and with Lukaku in the attack wasting all the chances???? Oh Nooooooooo.......and u blame Mourinho Solution: Buy 2 more better defenders and 1 better striker. Alexes is offering nothing in terms of goal, start Juan Martha.

what we learned from today's match, 1.pogba plays too much,and he hold ball too much 2.lukaku is nothing without good crossers. 3.Manchester united should try to learn consecutive short passes 4.Fred is a potential world class 5.Sanchez should be benched for some games 6.shaw is developing nicely 7.Andreas should play more 8. we need a world class playmaker
