Page 2 - Manchester United 1 - 1 Wolverhampton Wanderers: Three talking points

#2 Wolves are here to stay

Manchester United v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Premier League — João Moutinho scored the equalizer for Wolves

Nuno Espírito Santo's side came into this game at the back of three wins out of three in all competitions. They dominated in the initial stages of the game and could have easily got the first goal only to be denied by De Gea. But they showed why they want to stay in the Premier League for years to come with a goal in the second which earned a crucial away point at Old Trafford. They have now got two points from the two Manchester sides.

When a team gets promoted, there is always a rumor about them going down again the following year. But with Wolves, with the players that have arrived, the manager that they have and with the financial power, they are likely to stay in the top flight football for the foreseeable future.

About the author

A sports enthusiast and an avid follower of football.

Since childhood I was encouraged to play cricket and in no time it became a hobby. Gradually I found interest in other sports also.

Football is in my blood and I love the electrifying ambiance that surrounds it. I often watch the pre and post match analysis of a match and try to learn how to analyze a football game.

The thing that intrigues me the most is that there are so many things happening behind the scenes that are oblivious to our naked eyes. The technological advancements that has been made are phenomenal.

I like analyzing a game from a statistical point of view. Being a data guy myself , I am firm believer of providing insights through facts and data. Though a game is always unpredictable , analyzing it from different dimensions can provide some very interesting conclusions.
