Wolves 0 Manchester United 1

Premier League 06/03/2010

Manchester United went back to the top of the Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Wolves at Molineux thanks to a second half goal from Paul Scholes. It was the Manchester United veteran midfielder's 100th goal in the Premier League.

United were without their in form striker Wayne Rooney who has an injured knee after his mid-week friendly game for England against Egypt at Wembley (3-1). Manager Sir Alex Ferguson blamed the heavy Wembley pitch for aggrivating the problem.

This was an evenly contested match and Wolves were guilty of a number of missed chances. Paul Scholes broke the deadlock in the 73rd minute when he seized onto a defender's mistake in the penalty box and drove his shot into the corner from 10 yards.
