In the early morning of December 13, Hojlund shone with a double goal to help MU reverse Plzen 2-1 in the Europa League qualifying round . In this match, the former Atalanta star only entered the field from the bench in the 56th minute to replace Marcus Rashford.

However, Hojlund managed to leave his mark with two goals in the 62nd and 88th minutes, helping MU reverse the score.

This is Hojlund’s 5th goal in the last 4 matches for MU. This season, this is also the best streak of achievements of the Danish striker. The appearance of Amorim at Old Trafford helped Hojlund “transform”. Before Amorim was appointed, Hojlund went through a series of 9 consecutive matches without scoring for the club and the national team.

Hojlund has been in impressive form in European competition. Since joining MU, he has played 12 matches in the Champions League/Europa League but scored 10 goals. This season alone, the former Atalanta star has scored 5 goals in the continental arena.

This achievement helps Hojlund share the Europa League top scorer title with Barnabas Varga (Ferencvaros), Yunus Akgun (Galatasaray) and Samu Omorodion (Porto), with 5 goals each.
