Man Utd team-mates in furious on-pitch argument at final whistle after Red Devils scrape past Viktoria Plzen
MANCHESTER UNITED stars Rasmus Hojlund and Amad Diallo appeared to have a heated argument after beating Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League.
Hojlund, 21, orchestrated United’s comeback win as his brace led to a 2-1 victory at the Doosan Arena after Matej Vydra took advantage of another howler by goalkeeper Andre Onana to open the scoring.
But all didn’t appear to be too well at full-time as the striker and Amad, 22, got into a shouting match while the two teams were getting ready to make their way down the tunnel.
Their row might have been sparked by the Ivory Coast international failing to pass to Hojlund and give him a chance to score his first Man Utd hat-trick.
Later reports suggested it was over the two players being unhappy for not having passed to each other in two late breaks.
And the argument couldn’t wait for the dressing room as tensions erupted while the cameras were still live.
Hojlund equalised for the Red Devils on 62 minutes, just six minutes after coming on as a second-half substitute.
And the Denmark international turned the game on its head two minutes before full-time to hand the Manchester giants their first away win in the Europa League this season.
United players celebrated passionately in a much more positive image than the one shown at full-time.
However, Amorim praised the pair, who were the visitors’ best players, during his post-match press conference

The Portuguese tactician even described the row as “perfect”.
Amorim said when asked if he was aware of the incident: “Yes, and for me it’s perfect.
“We need to feel something, in this moment we need to feel something.
“If we need to fight each other, it’s like a family. For me, it’s a very, very good sign. We need to feel something and that’s important.
“When you don’t care, you don’t do nothing. When you care you fight with your brother, with your mother, with your father. For me it’s a very good sign.
“It’s a normal thing, it’s a positive thing, a healthy thing, so I let the players and the captain [Bruno Fernandes] to calm down the things.
“If I think it’s too much, I will go inside the dressing room but it’s their space. They have to talk, to fight and for me it’s a very important thing.
“I am happy that we win the game and still fight each other. That is a very good thing.
“When you win and you fight with your team-mate because you want to score one more, for me it’s a very good day for us.”
