It only took 7 minutes for Rasmus Hojlund to score twice against Luton Town in round 25 of the Premier League.
Round 25 of the Premier League, Man Utd has a trip to Luton Town.
When the audience was still seated, the Red Devils of Manchester scored the opening goal.
From a foul clearance by the Luton Town defender in the first minute, Rasmus Hojlund quickly seized the opportunity.
The Danish striker easily passed goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski in a face-to-face position to score the opening goal.
With this goal, Hojlund officially entered Premier League history. Accordingly, he is the youngest player to score in 6 consecutive matches in England’s top national championship.
Hojlund set the record at the age of 21 years and 14 days. This is an extremely impressive achievement when knowing that Hojlund was criticized for failing in 14 consecutive matches at the beginning of the season.
It seems like Hojlund is really hot. By the 7th minute, this player had his own double. Alejandro Garnacho kicked the ball, which hit Hojlund and went into the net. The goal was awarded to the former Atalanta star.
It’s clear that Hojlund is playing too explosively. This player feels like every touch of the ball can be turned into a scoring opportunity.
Man Utd showed that they were right when they decided to put their trust in Hojlund.
In the context of the top 4 race becoming increasingly tense, Man Utd certainly benefits from Hojlund’s peak form.
