Manchester United travelled to Wolverhampton today to play the Wanderers in the 4th round of the FA Cup. Both teams started in a 4-3-3 formation which really helped to keep the flow of the game going. Well it kept the game flowing in one direction anyway.
United got off to the start that they wanted as [...]

The Dogs got the first goal of the game on what was a rather [...]
