Amad Diallo might have been the hero for Manchester United against PAOK last night but Rasmus Hojlund has also been singled out for special praise as well.

Diallo’s fin🥂e double ensured United finally picked up the win in Europe🧜 they’ve been craving.

However, while Diallo was praised for his display of finishin💖g, he couldn’t have done it alone and a few of his United teammates helped him out.

One of those players was striker Rasmus Hojlund, who put in a ꦑfine shift at the top of the🧸 pitch without the rewards of the goals again.

But according to former England player Izzy Christiansen, Hojlund should be praised and Diallo 🃏should even be thanking him for the first goal.

Speaking for the during the game, Christiansen was quick to praise the performance oꩵf Hojlund as he was taken off.

Indeed, Christiansen suggested that Diallo doesn’t score his opener without Hojl💛und’s persistence.

“What I like about Rasmus Hojlund is his endurance to the task. Looking baไck at Amad Diallo’s first goal, Rasmus’ role is key and nobody will notice it,” Christianse♏n said.

The goals will come for Hojlund at Man United

Being a young cen꧋tre-forwa💮rd at Manchester United is always a hard task and Rasmus Hojlund is giving things a good go at the moment.

Yes, the goals aren’t quite there as regularly as he’d like but in the main, he’s doing ok. Indeed, with Ruben Amorim turning Viktor Gyokeres into a wꦺorld-class forward, Hojlund will be hoping for simila🐭r.

Andy Cole has spoken previously of how 💦he feels sorry for Hojlund but he’s got his fans as well, with Martin Odegaard admitting he’d love to play with H𝄹ojlund.

For n🥃ow, the young Dane needs t🐬o keep at it and hope the goal scoring touch comes.
