Who Did Jacob Wrestle ?

And Jacob was left alone;and a man wrestled with him until the breaking of day.GEN.32:24 RSV

So Jacob called the name of the place Peni'el saying for I have seen God face to face and my life is preserved.GEN.32:30 RSV

In Genesis 32 we find the account where Jacob wrestled what appeared as a man,and Jacob would not let go till he was blessed,and he went away limping,and Jacob's name was changed to Israel.

In Hosea it says Jacob strove with the angel and prevailed yet Jacob said he saw God.

Did Jacob wrestle with an angel,or did He wrestle with God in a preincarnate appearance ?
