Kobbie Mainoo: Manchester United Youngster Scores Late Winner in Man Utd's 4-3 Win Over Wolves

• Kobbie Mainoo's wonderful solo goal secured Manchester United's victory
• Marcus Rashford was also on target after just five minutes into the game
• Scott McTominay's quick response restored Man United's two-goal lead

Kobbie Mainoo emerged as the hero for Manchester United, securing a dramatic victory with a remarkable solo goal in the final moments of the game.

Despite Wolves' late equaliser by Pedro Neto in the 95th minute, the young midfielder found the net seconds before the final whistle.

Mainoo's winning goal was a display of pure brilliance, as the 18-year-old deftly manoeuvred past one defender, executed a nutmeg on another, and expertly curled the ball into the bottom corner of Jose Sa's goal.

This moment of excellence proved just enough for the Red Devils to clinch all three Premier League points in a thrilling encounter, the BBC reported.

Wolves had earlier received a glimmer of hope through a Pablo Sarabia penalty, but Scott McTominay swiftly restored Man United's two-goal lead, heading home from a corner just 1 minute and 23 seconds after coming off the bench.

While Max Kilman struck for Wolves with five minutes remaining, and Neto added another goal, it was ultimately Mainoo's extraordinary contribution in the 97th minute that sealed the victory.

United have witnessed four of the last five 90th-minute winning goals in the Premier League scored by players aged 18 or younger: Federico Macheda in 2009, Marcus Rashford in 2016, Alejandro Garnacho in 2022, and now Maino, per Ghanaweb.
