Manchester United's interim manager Ralf Rangnick suffered his first defeat on Monday, as Wolves secured a 1-0 win at Old Trafford.
Joao Moutinho's strike in the 82nd minute earned Wolves a deserved victory, leaving United still seventh in the Premier League table, four points adrift of the top four.
It was a lacklustre performance from United, who were thoroughly outplayed by their opponents. An injury crisis at centre-back forced Rangnick to hand Phil Jones his first Premier League appearance in two years.
Despite being named captain for the second time, Cristiano Ronaldo was kept quiet by his Portuguese international teammates, and United's attacking flurry quickly fizzled out.
David De Gea was the difference between the sides, making a vital save to turn Ruben Neves' volley over.
Wolves managed more shots in the first half than they had in their previous three matches combined, but Bruno Lage's men have scored just 14 goals in 19 league games.
Victory lifts Wolves up to eighth, just three points behind United.
