(Video) Rasmus Hojlund open scoring at Villa Park with proper striker’s finish

Rasmus Hojlund’s goalscoring run continues.

The young Danish striker has now scored in five games in the bounce as Manchester United take the lead at Villa Park.

United’s goal came from a corner kick which would usually come as a surprise – except for the fact Villa look unable to defend corners this evening. It’s a bonus that we’ve took advantage of that in the first-half.

It was a proper striker’s finish, too.

Fernandes’ corner kick found Harry Maguire inside the box and Rasmus Hojlund was alive to put the ball into the back of the net.

The 20-year-old looks predatory inside the box with five goals in his last five matches for United.

There’s no stopping him now.
