(Video) Rasmus Hojlund smashes in opening goal after three minutes vs Spurs

Manchester United are up and running against Tottenham Hotspur this afternoon and it’s Rasmus Hojlund who has got the goal, making it two in two in the Premier League for the Norwegian international.

United are in desperate need of three points and the Reds have got the perfect start after they thwarted the visitors with a fierce opening press.

United broke with Rashford receiving the ball and going past two players but the winger couldn’t get his shot away. It eventually fell for Hojlund, who nearly took the net off the goal with an unstoppable strike into the top corner, as seen below.

That’s Hojlund’s seventh strike of the season in all competitions and Erik ten Hag will be hoping his side builds on that now.
