Manchester United's manager, Erik ten Hag, vowed to deal with the absence of Marcus Rashford, who missed a match due to illness following a night out in Belfast. The club released a statement stating that Rashford had taken responsibility for his actions, which had been dealt with as an internal disciplinary matter. Despite the controversy, Rashford returned to training and was available for selection in the next game against Wolves. He started the game and scored a goal, contributing to United's 4-3 victory in a thrilling match.
Last night told us a lot about Wolves. And even though some of it was bad, the overall feeling was good. A piece on a crazy, noisy, pulsating night of pride in defeat. #WWFC @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/gD3V9P1o5l

Match report: Wolves 3 Man United 4. What an incredible game. Now they’ve all deserved a big night out to celebrate a Premier League classic. https://t.co/5hVOzBcoDA
Video verdict… what a game - and what a goal to win it! Incredible game. The best advert for the Premier League. United brilliant at times, Wolves showed so much spirit and then Mainoo magic at the end. https://t.co/RAdNrrvdQS

Wolves 3-4 Man Utd: Mainoo the hero after incredible injury-time winner as Rashford scores on return https://t.co/UgczooO5MD https://t.co/UgczooO5MD
One of the best @premierleague games I've seen this season. Rashford outstanding, Hojlund good, Shaw influential, Martinez so important defensively, Mainoo confident finish. Gary O'Neil has got so much spirit and hunger in his Wolves team, Neto and Ait-Nouri so good. #WOLMUN 3-4
FT: Wolves 3-4 #MUFC Calamity in the 95th minute, poor organisation allowing Wolves to break + Neto to score. Ecstasy in the 97th minute, pure skill + confidence from Mainoo to salvage a winner. The expression on Ten Hag's face said it all. Incredible from an 18-year-old.
Thought we'd grabbed a point 😔 But what a match - Our lads always kept fighting 💪 So proud of @Wolves 🐺🧡🖤#WOLMUN
A breathtaking end to the game at Molineux saw Kobbie Mainoo snatch Manchester United the points in a 4-3 win against Wolves #WOLMUN https://t.co/LXVztofnp0
FULL-TIME Wolves 3-4 Man Utd An incredible game and a fantastic Wolves fightback but, if we're being critical, all four goals were poor ones to concede and they've paid the price. Still plenty to be encouraged by. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Goal. Mainoo restores United's lead. Heartbreak for Wolves. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
3-3. Neto. Wolves never give up. #WOLMUN
Wolves 2-3 #MUFC Soft goal to concede. From Antony giving ball away, to Dawson having space at far post, to Onana + Dalot failing to block a tame shot. A comfortable win in jeopardy. Tense finish at least.
United fail to deal with a Neto corner and Kilman spins and fires home with the aid of a couple of deflections. Wolves have fought really hard in this second half but will rue their poor defending if they end the game with nothing. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Gomes and Fraser imminent for Wolves. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Wolves' excellent fightback at the start of the second half undone by some shoddy defending at a corner. McTominay forces it home and Wolves have it all to do again. #WWFC https://t.co/SoDh0YRYJa
Wolves penalty. Neto brought down. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Cunha through the middle now for Wolves. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Dawson's left-footed shot from a tight angle comes back off Onana's head. Wolves better at the start of the second half, although they're having to take some chances and leave themselves vulnerable to the counter. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Massive block from Dawson from a Fernandes shot to prevent a third United goal that would almost certainly have killed Wolves off. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
HALF-TIME Wolves 0-2 Manchester Utd Wolves have had promising moments in attack but overall this is as poor as they've played since Arsenal away, when they had the mitigation of a more weakened team. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Marcus Rashford scores in first appearance since night out controversy #WOLMUN https://t.co/XdeyItXL01
Wolves are actually carrying a threat when they manage to get some possession in the United half. Problem is they look capable of conceding every time United attack. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Some mumblings of discontent in the Molineux crowd for the first time in quite a while as Wolves make mistake after mistake in a horrible little spell. Composure gone, hopefully only temporarily. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Could easily be 3-0 as Wolves switch off at a Bruno Fernandes free-kick and Casemiro has a free header, which he sends wide. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Having said that, Wolves have been nowhere near their recent standards apart from a couple of brief spells of pressure. #WWFC https://t.co/DkIwKgre9j
Wolves 0-2 #MUFC So clear Shaw was going to deliver in that position when teed up by Rashford. Great near-post run from Hojlund. It's what he's been crying out for all season. Superb move from back to front by United.
RASHFORD GOAL. Absolutely smashes it. 💥 https://t.co/cgMAErybjB

Erik ten Hag's decision to start Marcus Rashford has paid off 👏 #WOLMUN
Clever goal from a United point of view as Rashford curls it home from the edge of the box. Maybe Wolves could have put more pressure on the ball but that one was tricky to stop. #WWFC https://t.co/TQrk7wXZ4y
Wolves 0-1 #MUFC Quite remarkable from Marcus Rashford. Superb finish. Erik ten Hag's selection at Molineux works for a second season in a row. Excellent move by United too.
Rashford scores - lovely finish - and runs to the away side to celebrate. The drinks are on Marcus tonight. https://t.co/ITLghWpdzV
