Ruben Amorim celebrated his first victory as Manchester United manager with a dramatic 3-2 win over Bodø/Glimt in the UEFA Europa League at Old Trafford.
The match started strongly for United, with Alejandro Garnacho capitalizing on an early error by the Bodø/Glimt goalkeeper to open the scoring. Rasmus Højlund, the Danish forward, then doubled the lead and later added a second goal to his tally, showcasing his clinical finishing and physical presence.
Despite United’s strong start, the Norwegian visitors mounted an impressive fightback, narrowing the deficit to one goal twice during the game. Bodø/Glimt’s resilience tested United’s defense, but the Red Devils held firm under pressure to secure all three points. The result marked a positive beginning for Amorim, as he aims to revitalize Manchester United following a challenging period.
The win also provided a much-needed boost to the squad’s morale, with standout performances from young talents like Garnacho and Højlund highlighting United’s potential under Amorim’s management. This result gives the Portuguese manager a solid platform as he continues to implement his tactical philosophy and rebuild the team’s confidence
