Manchester United have set Old Trafford alight this Boxing Day as Erik ten Hag’s men have come back from a two-goal deficit to lead against Aston Villa.
Unai Emery’s men, who were one point off the top of the table going into this evening’s meeting, held a two-goal advantage going into half-time but with less than 10 minutes remaining of the game, United have turned it around.
United have been terrific in the second half, with Alejandro Garnacho scoring the first two goals after having one disallowed.
Now, Rasmus Hojlund’s long and painful wait for his first Premier League goal has come to an end, with the Danish international finding himself at the perfect spot at the perfect time to slot in United’s third, as seen below.
