Manchester United’s struggles continued in a crushing defeat on Boxing Day in a resurgent Vitor Pereira Wolves as Matheus Cunha scored one and provided another soon after Bruno Fernandes saw red.
Gary O’Neill’s successor followed up Sunday’s 3-0 win Leicester with another impressive win as the Portuguese’s first match at Molineux ended with a huge boost in their desire to stay up.
Wolves deserved their 2-0 victory, exposing set-piece flaws in Ruben Amorim’s side who stumbled as Cunha beat Andrea Onana directly from a corner shortly after Fernandes’ third dismissal of the season.
Old Man Cunha – whose availability was in doubt due to a Football Association misconduct charge hanging over him – took over from Hwang Hee-chan to finish things off at the death.
New boss Pereira hit the air after his perfect star continued, handing Amorim his fifth defeat in 10 matches in all competitions.
This was an alarming result from United four days after a 3-0 home win over Bournemouth, leaving them in 14th place.
