Ruben Neves' stunning strike from outside the penalty area earned Wolves a 1-1 draw with Manchester United in an end-to-end match at Molineux on Monday night.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer handed summer arrival Daniel James, who scored against Chelsea in their opener, his first Premier League start, while Andreas Pereira was dropped to the bench.

United, who recorded two losses and a draw in all competitions against Wolves last season, took the lead before the half-hour when Anthony Martial buried a shot into the roof of the net following some nice build-up play.

The goal was Martial's 50th since joining Man United in the summer of 2015 -- the most by any player over that spell -- and it gave his team a a 1-0 lead at the break.

Wolves came out of the dressing room squarely on the front foot and got a deserved equaliser 10 minutes in when Neves curled in a beauty past David De Gea following a corner kick and the goal standing up after a quick video review for offside.

Paul Pogba drew a penalty in the 67th minute, but the Frenchman's powerful spot kick was saved by Wolves keeper Rui Patricio, who guessed the right way and kept the ball out of the net to preserve the 1-1 draw.

The game was wide open in the final 20 minutes with both sides looking equally likely to score, but no goals came for either Wolves or United and the two teams settled for a point apiece to wrap up matchday two in the Premier League.

The result maintains Wolves 13-game home unbeaten streak in all competitions and puts their record against Man United at two wins and two draws over the last two seasons.

Next up for United is a home match against Crystal Palace on Saturday, while Wolves begin their Europa League campaign against Torino on Thursday before hosting Burnley in the Premier League on Sunday.

MEXICO CITY -- Estadio Azteca owners are set to take legal action against vendors who were caught watering down beers at the famous stadium by filling part of the cup with liquid from the ice-filled bath the beers are stored in.

A video purporting to show a beer seller employing the practice during Club America's 1-0 victory over Morelia last Saturday went viral in Mexico, where it is normal for vendors to wander around the stands during the game to sell food and beer.

El #EstadioAzteca no acepta prácticas que afecten a la afición. Circula un video que exhibe a vendedores alterando producto. Ya se retiró a los implicados permanentemente de las instalaciones. Estamos ejerciendo acciones legales. No permitiremos estas conductas.

"Estadio Azteca doesn't accept practices that affect fans," read a statement on the stadium's social media accounts. "A video is circling that shows vendors altering the product. Those implicated have been removed from the premises. We are starting legal action. We won't allow that behavior."

This isn't the first time the issue of diluted beer has made headlines in Mexico during the 2019 Apertura season.

A video taken during a Santos Laguna game in late July appeared to show beer sellers emptying out leftover beer into what appeared to be a dirty bucket on the floor and then re-serving it to customers.

Ousmane Dembele has been ruled out for five weeks with a hamstring strain to leave Barcelona short of forwards ahead of Sunday's game against Real Betis.

Dembele, 22, underwent tests at the club's training ground on Monday after ending Friday's loss to Athletic Bilbao with a slight problem.

The injury to Frenchman comes at an unfortunate time for Barca, who are already without Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.

Messi hasn't featured for the club since the end of last season after injuring his calf in his first training session back after a summer break earlier this month.

Suarez, meanwhile, was taking off during the first half of the 1-0 loss at San Mames last week, also with a calf problem.

The Uruguayan is not expected back until after September's international break, although coach Ernesto Valverde could potentially have Messi available for the Betis game this weekend.

Messi has not yet returned to full training with his teammates but has been doing recovery work at the training ground for the last week. Valverde opted not to risk him against Athletic.

Antoine Griezmann, therefore, is currently the only fit first-team forward. Rafinha can also play in a more advanced position, as have the likes of Sergi Roberto and Carles Alena in the past, while B team winger Carles Perez has also been training with the first team all summer.

Philippe Coutinho, though, has just completed a move to Bayern Munich and Malcom was sold to Zenit Saint Petersburg.

It leaves Valverde short in attack for the visit of Betis, a game which has grown in importance following a surprise opening day defeat in the Basque Country.

Dembele, a €120 million signing from Borussia Dortmund in 2017, has been plagued by injuries since moving to Camp Nou. He missed the majority of his first campaign at the club with muscle injuries and parts of last season with an ankle injury and a hamstring problem.

His latest in a number of fitness setbacks, coupled with Suarez and Messi both being 32, shows why the Spanish champions are so keen to bring Neymar back to the club.

Sources told ESPN FC on Monday that the club are preparing to make another offer to re-sign the Brazilian this week, firstly on loan with an option to make the move permanent this summer.

Coutinho's move to Bayern -- the ex-Liverpool man was offered in a part-exchange deal last week -- has made it difficult for Barca to sign Neymar outright before the transfer window closes.

Paris Saint-Germain are set to reject an expected loan offer from Barcelona for wantaway striker Neymar, according to ESPN FC sources.

Earlier on Monday, ESPN FC sources in Barcelona said that the Catalans were set to make a loan offer for Neymar with an option to buy next summer, but it appears that proposal would be dead on arrival in Paris.

The Parisians expect the loan offer to land on Tuesday or Wednesday, but that option does not suit the Ligue 1 holders, according to sources.

PSG's Qatari owners have been disappointed by the attitude of Neymar this summer and are ready to let him leave, but only if they can recoup as much of the €222 million they spent to bring him to Paris in the summer of 2017.

There is also the belief in Paris that Barcelona will not be able to pay the transfer fee in one lump sum next summer should they make the move permanent and would ask to pay in annual installments, which is not ideal for the French club.

PSG sporting director Leonardo is trying to get as much money in cash as possible for Neymar, hoping to recoup at least €200m. The situation is further complicated by Philippe Coutinho's loan move to Bayern Munich, making a potential deal for Neymar harder to pull off as PSG had hoped the Barcelona midfielder could be a makeweight in some kind of cash-plus-players deal.

Neymar still wants to leave the Parc des Princes this summer and his preference is to go back to Barcelona where he played between 2013 and 2017.

Sources say the Brazilian superstar is trying to stay positive but he knows that a deal to see him returning to the Camp Nou is getting more and more difficult.

Neymar, who continues to train on his own away from the first team, has not played in either of PSG's two opening Ligue 1 matches so far this season, with Leonardo saying that he will not be involved until his situation is resolved.

WOLVERHAMPTON, England -- Paul Pogba had a penalty kick saved as Manchester United missed the chance to go top of the Premier League after a 1-1 draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday night.

Pogba's spot kick was kept out by Rui Patricio after Ruben Neves' stunning 20-yard strike had cancelled out Anthony Martial's opener. It meant that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team had to settle for a point and missed the chance to go top of the Premier League table for the first time since September 2017 -- 695 days ago.

Martial's second goal of the season gave United a deserved lead at half-time before Neves beat David De Gea with a curling effort that kissed the underside of the crossbar as it went in. The goal was given by referee Jon Moss, but only after a protracted video review. United recovered from a shaky start to the second half to end the game on top, but Pogba's miss denied them a first win at Molineux since 2012.

Positives

It was a risk for Solskjaer to sell Romelu Lukaku without signing a replacement but, so far, Martial has justified his manager's faith as United's No. 9. He should have done more with a chance at the back post from Marcus Rashford's cross, but there was nothing wrong with his movement and finish for the opening goal. That's two in two after scoring against Chelsea, and his 50th for the club in little more than four years at Old Trafford. He should be aiming to add at least 20 to that total this season.

Negatives

After a controlled first half, United didn't start well after the break. Solskjaer was out on the touchline early in the second half trying to lift his players, but it didn't work and Neves scored soon afterwards. It is difficult for any team to stay on top for 90 minutes, but United cannot afford to go through periods of the game where they switch off. Chelsea didn't manage to punish them, but they weren't that fortunate against Wolves.

Manager rating out of 10

5 -- You have to wonder why Solskjaer has not chosen a designated penalty taker. Rashford scored from the spot against Chelsea after a conversation with Pogba, but here Pogba won the debate and his kick was saved. It was the fourth time the Frenchman has missed a penalty from 11 attempts since the start of last season.

Player ratings (1-10; 10 = best, players introduced after 70 minutes get no rating)

GK David De Gea, 6 -- Lucky that Raul Jimenez's header didn't end up in the net after hitting him on the way back off the post. Could do nothing about Neves' equaliser.

DF Aaron Wan-Bissaka, 7 -- It's incredible how many times he wins the ball back in situations where he should get nowhere near it. His Spiderman nickname is well deserved.

DF Luke Shaw, 6 -- Played his part in the opening goal with a long burst forward from left-back. Different game for him when Adama Traore came on at half-time.

DF Victor Lindelof, 6 -- Nearly got himself into trouble with a sliced clearance that ballooned into the air on the edge of the box.

DF Harry Maguire, 7 -- Missed a challenge on Jimenez in the first half but won almost everything in the air. Defended well.

MF Scott McTominay, 6 -- Neves and Joao Moutinho dominated the games against United last season, but McTominay did enough to make sure they didn't have it their own way here.

MF Paul Pogba, 6 -- Great run forward from midfield to win the penalty but saw his kick saved by Patricio after taking the ball off Rashford.

MF Jesse Lingard, 6 -- Looks far more effective playing centrally than he does out wide. Puts in a lot of work off the ball that is key to the way Solskjaer wants to play.

FW Daniel James, 6 -- Making his first competitive start for United. Worked hard but didn't get much joy forward. Booked for diving.

FW Marcus Rashford, 7 -- Wonderful skill on the left to create the first chance of the night for Martial. Beautifully weighted pass for the first goal.

FW Anthony Martial, 7 -- Should have done better with an early chance from Rashford's cross but made up for it with a finish punched into the top corner with his left foot.

Substitutes

MF Juan Mata, N/R -- Replaced Lingard with nine minutes remaining.

MF Andreas Pereira, N/R -- Came on for the final minute plus stoppage time in place of Rashford.

FW Mason Greenwood, N/R -- The second of a double substitution in the 89th minute, taking James' place.

Middlesex 75 (Robinson 8 for 34) and 149 for 4 (Robson 61*) trail Sussex 309 (Wells 62, Carey 56, Beer 77, Roland-Jones 5 for 70) by 85 runs

A quorum of former Guardian cricket writers had descended upon Hove by pure happenstance on the second day and after much reminiscing about Great Stories We Have Known nobody had the faintest idea how to best write this piece. For much of the day nothing hugely newsworthy had happened. Which, in a funny sort of way, was exactly what Middlesex needed.

When you are bowled out for 75 on the first day, and suffer a heavy first-innings deficit as a consequence, about the best you could hope for in Middlesex's position was that the pitch quietened, the match became a backdrop for spectators' idle chatter and the second-innings score mounted quietly without anybody really noticing.

Sam Robson, a good player, slight yet judicious, and eminently capable of going about his work with barely a murmur, made an admirable to maintain that mood until the close. He closed on 61 from 140 balls, a selective knock with 10 boundaries, but Middlesex, at 149 for 4, still trailed by 85.

Middlesex's first task if they were to get back into the match, was to subdue Ollie Robinson who had returned 8 for 34 - the best figures in the Championship this season - in the first innings. Robson did so admirably, taking 26 from 42 balls from Robinson without much sign of risk. On this occasion, he met the medium pace of Tom Haines more cautiously, finding release only once in a drive down the ground.

By the close, however, Robinson's match tally had swollen to 10 wickets. Stevie Eskinazi was bowled through the gate in the first over and Paul Stirling, who made a third-ball nought, was to fall in identical fashion on a floodlit evening. Jared Warner had Nick Gubbins caught at second slip, although his most dangerous ball came late on when he had Robson leaping in self preservation.

That left Dawid Malan, a prize wicket, an excellent first scalp for the debutant left-arm spinner, Elliot Hooper. Malan was unfortunate as his dead bat could not prevent the ball from running into the stumps. He has had a fine season for all that and one senses that in a parallel universe, with England clearly needing an uncompromising character in the middle order, he would be batting against Australia in the Ashes.

If Middlesex's descent to 74 all out was galling enough on the opening day, at least it owed much to the excellence of Robinson on a surface that seamed little and often. But their concession of a first-innings lead of 234 must have been more exasperating for their coach Stuart Law as they dragged them back into the match only to throw it all away in a careless half-hour before lunch.

Sussex resumed at 128 for three with a lead of 53 and, although Luke Wells and Alex Carey both registered half-centuries in extending their fourth-wicket stand to 125 in 38 overs, the loss of four wickets for 11 runs in 37 balls thrust Middlesex back into the match.

Toby Roland-Jones took three of them, running in long and languidly from the Cromwell Road End, a bowler with an approach so extensive that it might have a bus stop en route. He did not find the movement that Robinson had on the first day, but he finished with a creditable 5 for 70, removing Wells with a chip into the leg side, Carey to an on-drive that flew to second slip and David Wiese, caught at the wicket for nought. Ben Brown perished, too, for nought, cutting at Tim Murtagh.

With Sussex's lead 76, and three wickets to get, Middlesex were back in the match, only to cast aside their recovery in a dreadful half hour before lunch when Steven Finn and James Harris leaked 57 in six overs down the slope - and one of those was a Finn maiden.

There were 13 boundaries in that spell and, as well as Robinson and Will Beer counter-attacked, many of them were gifts. As another half volley was dispatched to an invitingly short leg side boundary, the opening line of Amy Winehouse's song, "Me & Mr Jones", came to mind.

Ever since he made a century on debut for Sussex, Robinson's danger with the bat has been apparent and Beer, primarily a legspinner, has busied himself over much of the past decade as Sussex 2nd XI's most reliable batsman. Nevertheless, as a soft period that exemplified why Middlesex why lie sixth when many expected them to be comfortably in the top three it took some beating.

By the time Robinson tapped back a full toss from the legspinner Nathan Sowter immediately after lunch, Sussex were running free. Even at nine down, Middlesex were not free from self-inflicted wounds, this time quite literally as Beer slapped Sowter's long hop to long off where Finn was struck in the face as the ball ran through his hands.

Vijay Shankar and Shardul Thakur are set to return to top-flight cricket with the upcoming five-match one-day series against South Africa A in Thiruvananthapuram. The BCCI named two India A squads - one for the first three matches and another for the last two games - and Vijay and Thakur were named in both of them, with Manish Pandey and Shreyas Iyer sharing captaincy duties.

Thakur returns to competitive cricket after recovering from his foot surgery right after the IPL. Vijay, meanwhile, had his maiden World Cup campaign brought to a premature end by a Jasprit Bumrah toe-crusher in the nets, only three games since his tournament debut. His recent outings at the TNPL fetched him only 10 runs and three wickets in three games for Chepauk Super Gillies.

Nitish Rana and Sanju Samson, whose last appearances in competitive cricket came during the IPL, were also among the 22 players who were picked for the series, which will run from August 29 to September 6.

While Rana, the Kolkata Knights Riders batting allrounder, also made it to both squads - each comprising 15 players - Samson was assigned wicketkeeping duties for only the fourth and fifth games, in which Iyer will lead the side. Ishan Kishan, meanwhile, will keep wickets for the first three matches, under Pandey's captaincy.

Samson and Iyer were among the seven players to have been named only for the last two games, alongside quick bowlers Tushar Deshpande and Ishan Porel, batsman Prashant Chopra, and spinners Washington Sundar and Rahul Chahar who were both part of the T20I side that played against West Indies recently.

India mainstay Yuzvendra Chahal, meanwhile, featured in both squads, so did Shubman Gill, Shivam Dube, Anmolpreet Singh, Ricky Bhui, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, and Rana. Krunal Pandya, Khaleel Ahmed, Deepak Chahar and Pandey were the absentees from the squad for the last two matches.

Gill, the top-scorer during India A's four-match one-day series against West Indies, might be the first-choice opener for all five matches, with Ruturaj Gaikwad, who finished second on the run-scorers' list during the same series was picked only for the first three games against South Africa A, as his opening partner.

A squad for first three one-dayers: Manish Pandey (capt.), Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shubman Gill, Anmolpreet Singh, Ricky Bhui, Ishan Kishan (wk), Vijay Shankar, Shivam Dube, Krunal Pandya, Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, Khaleel Ahmed, Nitish Rana

A squad for last two one-dayers: Shreyas Iyer (capt.), Shubman Gill, Prashant Chopra, Anmolpreet Singh, Ricky Bhui, Sanju Samson (wk), Nitish Rana, Vijay Shankar, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Rahul Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Tushar Deshpande, Ishan Porel
