Rasmus Hojlund wins Manchester United’s November Goal of the Month award | OneFootball

Rasmus Hojlund has won Manchester United’s November Goal of the Month award for his first goal in the 3-2 Europa League win over Bodo/Glimt.

Hojlund produced a stellar performance against Bodo/Glimt, which he crowned with a sensational brace to secure all three points for United.

It was his first goal – just before the break – which really grabbed the headlines.

Noussair Mazraoui produced a fine bit of skill to get past a couple of defenders before delivering a sublime cross inside the box.

Hojlund got on the end of it, delicately bringing the ball under his spell with a fabulous touch before firing it into the bottom corner, well past the reach of a helpless Nikita Haikin.

The finish ensured United went down the tunnel with the score level. Moments after the restart, Hojlund grabbed a second. This turned out to be the winner as United registered their second Europa League victory of the campaign.

So far this term, Hojlund has managed four goals and one assist in 14 appearances across all competitions.

United explain that the Dane’s first goal in the meeting with Bodo/Glimt narrowly edged out Amad Diallo’s second against PAOK in the previous continental contest.

Other goals that were in the running for United’s November Goal of the Month prize are Amad’s first goal vs. PAOK, Hojlund’s second vs. Bodo/Glimt, Bruno Fernandes (Leicester), Alejandro Garnacho (Leicester) and Marcus Rashford (Ipswich).

Hojlund is the fourth player to claim the Goal of the Month award this season after Garnacho (August), Christian Eriksen (September) and Casemiro (October).

The United n.o 9 will be hoping to be named in Ruben Amorim’s starting XI for the match against Arsenal on Wednesday.

Kick-off is at 20:15 BST.
