Manchester United brought the curtain down on 2022 with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Wolves at Molineux on Saturday lunchtime.
Marcus Rashford, after being axed from the starting line-up for oversleeping and missing a team meeting, stepped off the bench to score the winner with just under 15 minutes of normal time left on the clock. His 11th goal of the campaign was enough to lift the Reds into the top four for the first time this season.
It moved them into fourth place, two points clear of Tottenham Hotspur, and just four points behind cross-city rivals Manchester City, who dropped points at home to Everton later in the day. The Reds, however, will drop back out of the top four if Spurs beat Aston Villa on New Year's Day afternoon.
