In a dramatic Premier League match at Molineux on Thursday, Manchester United defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-3 thanks to the late strike from teenager Kobbie Mainoo.
The 18-year-old academy graduate was brought on with just four minutes of normal time remaining and with his side 3-2 up. But a late strike from Pedro Neto looked to have undone all of United's hard work before Mainoo stepped up with a sublime solo effort seven minutes into stoppage time.
Marcus Rashford had fired United into the lead after five minutes with a curling shot from outside the box.
It was the perfect response from the forward after reportedly visiting a Belfast nightspot last week and later reporting ill.
Ten Hag started Rashford and appeared to get a reaction with his well-taken finish.
Rasmus Hojlund doubled the visitors’ lead in the 22nd by converting Luke Shaw’s cross at the near post.
Wolves got back into the game through Pablo Sarabia’s penalty in the 71st, but Scott McTominay restored United’s two-goal advantage with a header just two minutes after coming on as a substitute.
Max Kilman gave Wolves hope with a goal in the 85th and Neto equalized when he cut inside and fired low into the corner to leave goalkeeper Andre Onana standing.
Ten Hag held his head after seeing his team blow its advantage, but he led the celebrations on the sideline when Mainoo struck for his first Premier League goal.
