Manchester United made a winning Old Trafford start under new head coach Ruben Amorim. The Manchester side made a good comeback as they came from behind to beat Norwegian team Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League. Manchester United scored after just 48 seconds into the game as they did against Ipswich over the weekend.
Manchester United beat Bodo/Glimt to Record First Home Win for Ruben Amorim
A catastrophic error from the visiting team goalkeeper Nikita Haikin, allowed Rasmus Hojlund collected the ball and assist Garnacho. But the victory did not last for long as the visit had their equalizer much later.
After the equalizer their second goal came almost immediately to give the lead against United in Old Trafford. Thankfully for United, Hojlund brought a scream of delight from Amorim with an outstanding finish to pull them level before the break.
Hojlund soon scored his second to give United the lead as he turned home Manuel Ugarte’s cross from close range five minutes into the second period.
While Amorim will be pleased with a result that boosts United’s chances of a top-eight finish in the Europa League table and automatic qualification for the last 16 in March, he will be frustrated at the number of chances his side wasted to ease their way to victory.
Manchester United are in the 12th place position after playing five matches, they drew three and have now won two.
