Manchester United took a step closer to Champions League qualification with a 2-0 win over Wolves on Sunday.
Anthony Martial got the opener on 32 minutes amid a lacklustre first half before Alejandro Garnacho made sure of the three points in second-half stoppage time. The 18-year-old came off the bench to net his fifth goal of the season following a two-month lay-off.
Erik ten Hag has now amassed the most victories for a manager in his debut season at United - 37 in all competitions. A top-four spot was the objective this season and United look in prime position to finish there after opening up a four-point gap to Liverpool in fifth.

Here are four things United fans may have missed during the win over Wolves.
Many fans will have seen Garnacho tucking the ball under his top in a reference to his pregnant girlfriend, but the teenager showed his appreciation for the Old Trafford faithful moments beforehand with another gesture.
The youngster was given a rousing reception when he came off the bench and subsequently blew a handful of kisses to those in the tunnel corner to show the love is very much reciprocated.
Many saw Ole Gunnar Solskjaer back at Old Trafford for his first game since his sacking in November 2021, but another former fan-favourite made a rare appearance. Park Ji-Sung attended the game with his family, while Portugal manager Roberto Martinez was also present.
Both club heroes posed for photos pre-match before watching the game from the director's box. Adorning Solskjaer chants were heard in the opening stages of the match, showing that he has very much still respected by the United faithful.
The match was made extra special for Fernandes as he led out
