Soccer Football - Premier League - Manchester United v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Old Trafford, Manchester, Britain - August 14, 2023Wolverhampton Wanderers' Nelson Semedo in action with Manchester United's Scott McTominay - REUTERSPIX: Manchester United survived an onslaught from Wolves and huge claims for a late penalty to start the Premier League season with a 1-0 win thanks to Raphael Varane’s header on Monday.
Onana was lucky to escape when he punched Sasa Kalajdzic as he flapped at a cross deep into stoppage time and VAR did not intervene. United clung on to get off to a winning start, in stark contrast to the two defeats that began Erik ten Hag’s reign 12 months ago. The home support again showed their displeasure towards owners, the Glazer family, with a pre-match protest against the Americans and chants of “we want Glazers out” at kick-off.Onana and midfielder Mason Mount were handed their debuts by Ten Hag, but new £64 million striker Rasmus Hojlund was ruled out by a back injury.O’Neil replaced the Spaniard tasked with repeating his heroics in keeping Bournemouth in the Premier League last season.
But the 24-year-old showed a glimpse of why he could yet live up to that fee with a surging run through the heart of the United midfield before firing a low shot that Onana turned behind.
