After scoring and assisting in the most recent victory over Wolves, Rasmus Hojlund’s record was tied with that of Cristiano Ronaldo.

As a result of his victory over Wolves, Rasmus Hojlund passed Ronaldo’s record.

Rasmus Hojlund continued to impress by contributing to two goals for Manchester United against Wolves. This came after he scored and assisted on a goal against Tottenham City. In the fifth minute, Hojlund provided Rashford with the ball, which allowed him to open the scoring. In the twenty-second minute, Hojlund sent Rashford a close-range cutback that doubled the lead.

 

After Cristiano Ronaldo, Hojlund earned the distinction of becoming the youngest player for Manchester United to score and assist in two consecutive Premier League matches. He is also the second player in Premier League history to score and assist in two consecutive matches, joining Bryan Mbeumo of Brentford as the other player to accomplish this feat.

Hojlund had another opportunity to score, but his shot was disallowed because it was taken from offside. His teammates also played exceptionally well, which contributed to Hojlund’s better performance. One may argue that Manchester United recently finished the first half of the season with the best performance.

Nevertheless, volatility was demonstrated once more in the second half as Manchester United allowed Wolves to strike a 3-3 equalizer in extra time. The only reason that Manchester United were able to win all three points was because of the goal that Kobbie Mainoo scored at the very end of the game.

Despite having a rough beginning to his time at Manchester United, Hojlund has recently started to show signs of improvement. A total of four goals and two assists have been scored by the Danish player in the most recent five matches across all competitions. Up until that point, Hojlund had played in a string of eight matches without making any contributions to the scoring of any goals.
