Man Utd 3-2 Bodo/Glimt LIVE RESULT: Hojlund fires Red Devils to victory in Europa League as Amorim claims first win
MANCHESTER UNITED have beaten Bodo/Glimt 3-2 to secure back-to-back wins in the Europa League – but it wasn’t all plain sailing.
Ruben Amorim received a warm welcome as he led the Red Devils out for the first time at Old Trafford.
And he was once again greeted to a fast start after Alejandro Garnacho pounced on a defensive error from the visitors to make it 1-0 after just 48 seconds.
But on 19 minutes, Hakon Evjen’s screamer stunned Old Trafford and got Bodo/Glimt on level terms.
Things went from bad to worse for Man Utd after Philip Zinckernagel fired the visitors ahead just four minutes later.
Just before half-time, Rasmus Hojlund’s superb finish made the tie 2-2 to spare the hosts’ blushes at the interval.
Minutes into the second half, the Dane doubled his tally from close range, which turned out to be the match-winner as Amorim claimed his first win as Man Utd manager.
