Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag beamed with pride as Rasmus Hojlund's remarkable double sealed a one-sided victory over Norwegian outfit Bodo/Glimt at Old Trafford. It was a night that will be remembered for a long time, as the atmosphere in the stadium was electric and Hojlund's performance left the crowd, including boss Erik ten Hag, in awe.
Hojlund took just eight minutes to break the deadlock, displaying his sensational speed and skill to sprint past the Bodo/Glimt defenders before slotting the ball into the bottom corner from a challenging angle. His fine first-half performance raised hopes that Manchester United would smash their opponents and continue their winning run in style.
The win over Bodo/Glimt marked Manchester United's first European match on home soil under Erik ten Hag, and he would have been relieved to see his team make such a strong impression. United's manager was presented with a torrid time against opponents with unorthodox tactics, but ultimately, their dazzling skills on the ground proved too much for their Norwegian opponents.
Hojlund struck his second of the game in the 46th minute. United's frontman expertly guided Eriksen's pass into the net from close range after intricate build-up play and some wonderful individual efforts from his teammates. The beautifully crafted goal raised the roof off the stadium as the ecstatic crowd applauded their team, who proved their attacking might once again with precision and quality on the ball.
Another highlight of the evening came when Ruben Amorim was visibly moved to tears as Manchester United's fans applauded him before kickoff. Amorim was close friends with Cristiano Ronaldo, and his visit to Old Trafford marked a memorable occasion for the youngster. This special moment added to the excitement around the stadium as Manchester United geared up for another game under Erik ten Hag.
