Man United 3-2 Bodo/Glimt (November 28, 2024) Game analysis

Manchester United came from behind to beat Bodo/Glimt 3-2 in the Europa League and secure their first win under new manager Ruben Amorim.

United took the lead within the first minute thanks to a howler from goalkeeper Nikita Haikin, who could not handle a back pass and under pressure from Rasmus Højlund the ball broke free for Alejandro Garnacho to tap in from close range.

The Norwegians scored twice with fast breaks, Hakon Evjen hitting a brilliant strike into the top corner in the 19th minute and Philip Zinckernagel stopped Tyrell Malacia before beating keeper André Onana to stun the Old Trafford crowd.

United equalized just before half-time when Noussair Mazraoui’s pass in the penalty area picked out Højlund, who controlled the ball with his first touch before getting a shot away between two defenders in the far corner.

Amorim’s side took the lead five minutes after half-time when Manuel Ugarte’s low pass through the area was diverted into the net by Højlund, shortly after Mason Mount had hit the crossbar.

However, United could not find another goal and needed two good saves from Onana to secure the three points, moving them to 12th in the standings with nine points, ahead of Bodo/Glimt with seven.
