In the last few weeks, Rasmus Hojlund has been sensational for Manchester United and he delivered once again this Sunday in a 2-1 victory at Kenilworth Road against Luton Town.
When everything seemed lost in December, Erik ten Hag found the answers and the Red Devils are undefeated in 2024. Now, they’re in sixth place of the Premier League with 44 points and a berth for the next Champions League is suddenly within reach.
Today, Hojlund gave a massive boost to Manchester United scoring two goals in the first ten minutes of the match with Luton Town (1′, 7′). As a consequence, the star from Denmark has rewritten the record books.

Rasmus Hojlund became the youngest player in history to score in six consecutive Premier League games.
