Premier League: Manchester United Lose Chance To Move To Third Place After 2-1 Loss At Wolverhampton

Chris Smalling's own goal ruined Manchester United's chance of moving up to third position in the table as they lost 2-1 at Wolves.
The defeat was Solskjaer's first in the Premier League since he was appointed as permanent manager on three years contract and his second to Wolves to which he lost 2-1 in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
United's Fred set off Scott McTominay for an opening goal from 20-yard and he smacked the ball with a right footed shot down the bottom right of the post.
Wolves responded with a equaliser from Diogo Jota's shot from inside the box after Raul Jimenez slid a pass through to him from the edge of the box.
Unfortunately for United in the second half, after Ashley Young had been dismissed for two yellow card offences, Wolves got the winning from Chris Smalling defensive error, tapping in Dendoncker's free-kick in 77th minutes.
United's fight for top four of the table continues and would remain in fifth position with point tie with Tottenham who are fourth.
