Rasmus Hojlund's brace secured a narrow 3-2 victory for Manchester United under Ruben Amorim's leadership in the UEFA Europa League against Bodo/Glimt. Despite an early goal from Alejandro Garnacho and a stunning comeback from the visitors, Hojlund's goals ensured Amorim's first win in the Old Trafford dugout.
survived a scare against Bodo/Glimt as a Rasmus Hojlund brace ensured Ruben Amorim’s maiden match in the Old Trafford dugout ended in his first victory in charge.
But United supporters would end up celebrating in a week when the club have been roundly criticised for a new ticket pricing plan as Hojlund heeded the new head coach’s plea for more goals. Bodo could have buckled but reacted well against United, whose boss Amorim looked like a bee in a bottle on the touchline and was reminded of his new side’s shortcomings.
The Red Devils offered little by way of response, but the head coach’s half-time team talk changed just before the break. Mount’s flick put Manuel Ugarte in behind and his low ball found Hojlund, who outmuscled his man to direct home from six yards.
