'It worked' - Rasmus Hojlund reveals instruction from Ruben Amorim before Manchester United goal

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Rasmus Hojlund praised Ruben Amorim for giving him instructions that led to Manchester United's first goal against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday night.

United made another bright start against Bodo/Glimt, taking the lead within the first minute of the match when Hojlund dispossessed the opposition goalkeeper by pressing aggressively.

Alejandro Garnacho took advantage of Hojlund's good work and tapped into an empty net. Bodo/Glimt subsequently fought their way back into the contest, but Hojlund scored on the stroke of half-time to level the score and he produced a matchwinner in the second half.

Amorim drew his first game in charge against Ipswich Town and United's new head coach looked delighted to secure a 3-2 win in the Europa League.

"Yes and no," said Hojlund when asked if he was happy about the performance. "It was a little bit of a bad start and obviously we came back and showed character, but we want to make sure these games don't get too exciting and yeah, it's all about the three points and we got the job done. "He [Amorim] told me not to think too much about the guys behind me and try to work a little bit more with what I could see in the front, very aggressive, and you saw that with the first goal. "I haven't seen it back [second goal] but I've been told it was a good finish, so I'm going to go home now and watch it.
