Dimitar Berbatov: “Ugly, boring game in my book. The passing was bad, the decision-making was bad and there were some silly yellow cards for Manchester United.
Wolves had the better chances to score.”

Premier League referees’ boss Jon Moss apologised to Gary O’Neil and told him Wolves had been denied a “blatant” stoppage-time penalty in their 1-0 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford, according to the Wolves boss.
United’s debutant goalkeeper Andre Onana clattered into Sasa Kalajdzic deep into time added on, but Simon Hooper did not react and VAR Michael Salisbury deemed there was no foul, with an incredulous O’Neil instead booked for his reaction.
O’Neil said after the match he thought Onana was trying to take Kalajdzic’s head off, and then revealed he had received an immediate apology from Moss.
“Having just spoken to Jon Moss, fair enough he came straight out and said it was a blatant penalty and it should have been given,” O’Neil said.
Should Wolves have had a penalty yesterday?
