MARTINEZ: THIS CANNOT GO ON

The Red Devils came into the final fixture of a turbulent 2025 buoyed by the hard-fought Boxing Day win against Newcastle and as overwhelming favourites to beat Wanderers.

United took the lead through Joshua Zirkzee's deflected strike but failed to take their chances, with Ladislav Krejci's header late in the first half proving enough to earn Wolves a 1-1 draw.

It was just their third point in 19 matches and ended an 11-match topflight losing streak, with many of the Old Trafford faithful greeting the final whistle with boos.
