Rasmus Højlund Shines as Ruben Amorim Secures First Manchester United Win

Manchester United defeated Bodø/Glimt 3-2 in the Europa League, showcasing both promise under new head coach Ruben Amorim and lingering defensive vulnerabilities.

Rasmus Højlund scored twice, including a skillful volley, as Manchester United came from behind to earn a 3-2 victory over Bodø/Glimt at Old Trafford.
Alejandro Garnacho opened the scoring for United within the first minute, but defensive lapses allowed the Norwegian champions to net twice in quick succession.
Ruben Amorim, in his first home game as United's head coach, received a warm welcome from fans but acknowledged the team's need for improvement in defensive organization and consistency.
The match highlighted Højlund's potential as a key player under Amorim, with the striker benefiting from improved service and tactical adjustments compared to the previous regime.
Despite securing the win, United's ongoing issues with conceding quick goals and missed opportunities in attack remain challenges Amorim must address moving forward.
