Rasmus Hojlund won Manchester United’s Goal of the Month award for November after scoring his first goal in a 3-2 Europa League win over Bodo/Glimt.
Hojlund was brilliant against Bodo/Glimt, with his stunning performance securing all three points for United.
It was his first goal just before the break that really grabbed the headlines.
Noussair Mazraoui showed some fine technique to beat two defenders before delivering a superb cross into the box.
Hojlund got on the end of that ball and delicately brought the ball under his spell with a wonderful touch before firing it into the bottom corner, out of reach of a helpless Nikita Haikin.
Knocked it down with one touch, not giving the goalkeeper a chance 🔥#MUFC
