Premier League – Manchester United drew 1-1 with Wolves at home, with Zirkzee and Krejci scoring goals.

In the 19th round of the 2025/26 Premier League season, Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Wolverhampton Wanderers. They are currently sixth in the league with a record of 8 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses, tied with Chelsea on 30 points.

Wolves ended their 12-game losing streak across all competitions with this match, but still sit at the bottom of the Premier League table with 3 points from 3 draws and 16 losses.

Manchester United started strong and won a corner in the 4th minute. Luke Shaw's subsequent corner was dangerous, heading straight for the top left corner, forcing José Sá to tip it over the bar with one hand. In the 15th minute, Patrick Dolgu played a long pass from midfield to the left side of the penalty area, where Benjamin Sesko shook off Matt Doherty and fired a low shot that went just wide.

In the 27th minute, Aiden Haven dispossessed Hwang Hee-chan and cut inside from the right wing, but was intercepted by Radyslav Krejci just outside the penalty area. The ball then fell to Joshua Zirkzee, who turned and evaded Doherty before his shot deflected into the net, giving Manchester United a 1-0 lead.

After conceding a goal, Wolves were on the back foot, while Manchester United continued to control the game. In the 33rd minute, Dolgu delivered a cross from the left wing at a 45-degree angle, and Seshko's header was easily saved by José Sá. In the 38th minute, Zirkzee passed the ball from midfield to the left wing, and Dolgu broke into the penalty area before unleashing a powerful shot that went just wide. Luke Shaw then took a corner from the right, and Seshko's header at the far post hit the left post.

In the 41st minute, Wolves gradually stabilized after escaping several dangerous situations. First, Tolu Arrokodare delivered a through ball into the penalty area, but Hugo Bueno's follow-up shot was saved by Sena Lamenz. Matthäus Mane then unleashed a long-range shot, which was also caught by Lamenz.

In the 45th minute, Zirkzee provided an own-goal assist during a Wolves corner kick, allowing Krejci to head the ball into the net. Wolves thus equalized, bringing the two sides back to level terms.

After the break, both sides continued to exchange attacks. In the 53rd minute, Casemiro delivered a lobbed pass from the attacking third, and Sesko's header inside the penalty area was saved by José Sá. In the 56th minute, Yersson Mosquera's header clearance went straight into his own net, forcing José Sá to quickly track back and clear the ball off the line. In the 64th minute, Doherty headed the ball across the penalty area, and Krejci's shot was blocked by Lamenz. Mosquera's subsequent close-range follow-up shot was quite threatening, but ultimately failed to convert it into a goal.

In the 90th minute, Seshko's shot from the right side of the penalty area was saved by José Sá, but Dolgu quickly followed up and scored on the rebound. However, the linesman immediately raised his flag to indicate that Dolgu was offside before the goal, and the two sides ultimately drew 1-1.
