Manchester United marked a new chapter under Rúben Amorim with a hard-fought 3-2 victory against Bodø/Glimt in the UEFA Europa League at Old Trafford last night. The match not only secured the team’s first three points in the group stage but also offered the Portuguese manager a dream start to his tenure.
The Red Devils showed attacking intent from the outset, buoyed by the passionate support of a sold-out Old Trafford. United took an early lead through Alejandro Garnacho, who converted a precise shot in the 1st minute. However, Bodø/Glimt, known for their resilience, struck back with a well-executed goal to level the score before halftime. They also scored second one and United were trailing by 2-1. Hojlund equalised the score before the half-time whistle.
In the second half, Amorim’s tactical adjustments became evident. United pressed higher and regained the lead through Rasmus Højlund.
