Rasmus Hojlund Expresses Gratitude Following Debut Premier League Goal as Man Utd came from two goals down to defeat Aston Villa 3-2 on Boxing day

In a Remarkable Comeback, Rasmus Hojlund Clinches Victory for Manchester United against Aston Villa

Rasmus Hojlund, with a profound sense of gratitude, acknowledged the significance of scoring his inaugural Premier League goal as he played a pivotal role in Manchester United's triumphant Boxing Day clash against Aston Villa.

The Red Devils found themselves trailing after the first half, with McGinn putting Villa in the lead in the 21st minute, followed by Dendoncker doubling the advantage to make it 2-0 just five minutes later at Old Trafford stadium.

However, Erik ten Hag's side orchestrated a remarkable turnaround in the second half. Alejandro Garnacho showcased his prowess by scoring a brace, setting the stage for Rasmus Hojlund to net the decisive winning goal.

Reflecting on his performance, the 19-year-old striker expressed, “I am the happiest man in the world right now.”

Despite facing challenges since his arrival from Atalanta in the summer transfer window, Rasmus Hojlund had previously excelled with five goals in the UEFA Champions League group stage. However, he had yet to register a goal or assist in the Premier League until this crucial moment.
