Manchester United 1-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers: 5 Hits & Flops

Manchester United v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Premier League
Wolves collected a credible point at Old Trafford

Hit: Raul Jimenez

Rau
Raul carried out the asked tasks

The Mexican forward was impressive right from the beginning as his intelligent movement and pace created space for other players in the centre.

Jimenez is physically dominant and he used this attribute to keep Lindelof engaged. The Swede generally struggles against forwards who use their physicality to trouble the defenders.

Jimenez was proactive in that sense, always opening up spaces through the centre, and even shifting wide while attracting a couple of players towards him. He dropped deeper to help the team win the ball back when they were trying to hold on to a draw.

Overall, Jimenez’s attitude was appreciable as despite not scoring, he managed to carve out a notable impact on the field.

He made two clearances, intercepted and tackled once whilst also registering the assist for Moutinho’s goal.
