MU striker Rasmus Hojlund smiled brightly and seemed excited to hear the wonderful melody of the Champions League. It’s just a pity that the Red Devils couldn’t win points at the Allianz Arena when facing Bayern Munich.
In Bayern’s away match this morning (September 21), MU lost with a score of 3-4. The two players who scored for MU were Hojlund (49′) and Casemiro (88′, 90+5′, respectively). On the other side of the front line, Sane, Gnabry, Kane, and Mathys Tel were the scorers for the Gray Tigers. The defeat against Bayern extended MU’s disappointing series. This is their fourth defeat after 6 matches since the beginning of the season (3 in the Premier League, 1 in the Champions League) and also the Red Devils’ third consecutive defeat in the past 3 weeks.
For Hojlund personally, he has a memorable memory of his first match in the Champions League. Everyone noticed Hojlund’s emotional expression and bright smile when he first heard the heroic melody and spirit of the familiar song in the Champions League.
On social networks, fans were also excited to see Hojlund enjoying the Champions League song:
- Look at Hojlund, he really likes the Champions League song
- Today, Hojlund did not deserve this defeat
- Look at the smile on Rasmus Hojlund’s face
- The young man is living his dream
- Hojlund is smiling, stop it, he’s so cute
Rasmus Hojlund’s goal took place in the 49th minute when MU was leading 0-2 by Bayern Munich. The Danish player received a pass from his teammate and skillfully managed it in the penalty area. He turned and shot a shot that was not too strong but dangerous enough to bring MU’s first goal in the 2023/24 Champions League group stage.
This is also Rasmus Hojlund’s first goal for MU since moving to Old Trafford. Before that, he once hit Brighton’s net in the Premier League, but the goal was not recognized because Rashford let the ball go out of bounds.
In the end, Bayern defeated MU 4-3 at Allianz Arena in the opening match of Group A Champions League 2023/24. Looking at the results, many people thought that MU played a match equal to Bayern, but in reality, the Red Devils were completely inferior to their opponents. If it weren’t for the goal being repeatedly denied by the post, Bayern would probably have poured a rain of goals into MU’s net. Losing closely with a score of 3-4 is considered a “positive” result for Erik ten Hag and his team.
