'I will keep this with me'

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has heaped praise on the Red Devils fans for the welcome he received at Old Trafford this evening.

This was his first home game since he was appointed to replace Erik ten Hag, and he was greeted wholeheartedly by the home fans.

He then saw his side beat Bodo/Glimt 3-2, and after, he spoke to TNT.

He said: "Half of the stadium doesn't know me - doesn't really now me.

"I came from Portugal, and I've done nothing for this club yet.

"So, the way they make me feel at home is so special.

"It's not after something [a trophy], it's before something, and I will keep this until the end of my career."

Solution

Could Rasmus Hojlund prove to be Ruben Amorim's next striker project?

The former Sporting Lisbon manager turned Viktor Gyokeres into one of Europe's best forwards while in Portugal, and Hojlund has made a good start to life under Amorim.

He scored twice tonight as the Red Devils beat Bodo/Glimt 3-2.

His first goal was a lovely piece of control, followed by a nice finish before he was in the right place at the right time to prod home the winner early in the second half.

Hojlund also worked hard off the ball and helped create the first goal by pressing Nikkita Haiken, who made a horrible error.

So, though there is lots to work on, he was a big positive from this evening.

Europa League full times

Okay, gameweek five in the Europa League certainly didn't disappoint.

At Old Trafford, Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim claimed his first victory as Red Devils boss.

Man United came from 2-1 down to beat Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt 3-2.

But it was a far from convincing display.

In London, Tottenham were denied a win against Roma by a late Mats Hummels goal.

Spurs twice had the lead through Heung-min Son and Brennan Johnson, but set-pieces proved to be their undoing once more.

But there was a great result for Rangers in the south of France.

The Scottish giants smashed Nice 4-1, in one of their best results of the season.

Anderlecht 2-2 Porto - FT

Athletic Bilbao 3-0 Elfsborg - FT

AZ Alkmaar 1-1 Galatasaray - FT

Besiktas 1-3 Maccabi Tel Aviv - FT

GOAL! Tottenham 2-2 Roma - Mats Hummels

THEY'VE SNATCHED A LATE GOAL!

Tottenham had looked like they'd done enough to win, but Mats Hummels has other ideas.

Sours fail to clear a corner, and the ball is worked into Angelino.

He smashes a vicious cross along the floor, and it hits Hummels and flies into the net to spark wild scenes in the away end.

Man United 3-2 Bodo/Glimt - FULL TIME

That's it, Ruben Amorim has his first win as Manchester United manager.

The Red Devils came from 2-1 down to win 3-2 thanks to a Rasmus Hojlund double.

However, there are still plenty of issues for Man United to deal with.

The manager even had to abandon the 3-4-3 that he has become known for using, but in the second half, it was a back four.

Clearly, he knows this current team maybe aren't ready to deliver what he wants.

In fairness, the second half was much better from Man United, but they still needed Andre Onana to make two top saves at the end to ensure they won.

Man United 3-2 Bodo/Glimt - Chance

Big save from Andre Onana!

As the game approaches its conclusion, the Norwegian side are pushing hard for an equaliser, and they've nearly found it.

Substitute Sondre Auklend picked up space on the right and delivered a wonderful cross into the box.

Kasper Hogh connected with a firm header that Onana pushed away, preventing it ending up in the top corner of the net.

We are no into added time at Old Trafford.

Man United 3-2 Bodo/Glimt - Chances

Nearly a wonderful goal for Alejandro Garnacho!

Man United play a long ball up to Rasmus Hojlund, and he flicks a header on to the left.

It looks to be behind Garnacho, but he brilliantly collects and takes the ball into his stride.

Suddenly, he's in on goal and rifles in a low shot that fizzes past the far post.

Moments later, he should almost certainly score as the hosts break, and it's four on four.

Amad Diallo picks him out perfectly in the box.

He kills the pass and curls a shot over the bar from 12 yards.

Man United 3-2 Bodo/Glimt

Ruben Amorim looks to his bench and decides to bring on Marcus Rashford, Amad Diallo and Luke Shaw.

Mason Mount, Antony and Lisandro Martinez leave the field.

Fair play to the manager because whatever he said at half time has worked, and the home side have a lot more control.

Man United 3-2 Bodo/Glimt

This is much better from Manchester United, and they are looking for more goals.

Alejandro Garnacho is played in down the left, and he advances into the box.

The Argentine sits two defenders down and curls a shot at goal.

It's a decent effort, but the goalkeeper does well to stop it.

GOAL! Man United 3-2 Bodo/Glimt - Rasmus Hojlund

THE TURNAROUND IS COMPLETE!

Mason Mount starts the move with a cute backheel.

It takes several players out of the game and finds Manuel Ugarte.

He looks up and drills in a low cross that Rasmus Hojlund expertly guides into the bottom corner.

It's been a good night for the Dane.

Man United 2-2 Bodo/Glimt - Kick-off

Unsurprisingly, Tyrell Malacia has been withdrawn at half time.

It had been 550 days since he last played for the first team, so it's no real shock to see him come off.

He was also pretty poor in the first 45 minutes.

Diogo Dalot is on.

And it looks like, Ruben Amorim has switched to a back four...

Very interesting, given his insistence on a back three.

Europa League half times

I mean, that was just a mental half of Europa League football.

Goals have been flying in all over.

Manchester United are currently drawing 2-2 with Bodo/Glimt.

They opened the scoring within 50 seconds of Ruben Amorim's first game at Old Trafford, but the Norwegian side flipped the match and were leading 2-1 until Rasmus Hojlund popped up at the end of the half.

Elsewhere, Tottenham are beating Roma 2-1 thanks to goals from Heung-min Son and Brennan Johnson.

Rangers are also enjoying a great night.

The Scottish giants are 3-0 up over Nice at half time.

Vaclav Cerny, Mohammed Diomande and Hamza Igamane have Philippe Clement's side in cruise control.

GOAL! Man United 2-2 Bodo/Glimt - Rasmus Hojlund

IMPORTANT TIME TO SCORE!

Rasmus Hojlund is the scorer, but this goal is all down to Noussair Mazraoui.

He intercepts a pass and weaves to the edge of the box before crossing for the striker.

He brings it down on his thigh and fires into the corner via a deflection.

GOAL! Tottenham 2-1 Roma - Brennan Johnson

KULUSEVSKI IS IN THE FORM OF HIS LIFE!

Pape Mate Sarr drives a ball down the left for Dejan Kulusevski, and he picks it up.

He takes on his man and then drills a cross into the box.

Brennan Johnson comes from the right into the middle of the penalty area to finish with his left foot into the bottom corner.

Good finish, but Kulusevski can't stop being involved with goals at the moment.

Man United 1-2 Bodo/Glimt

Given they scored after 50 seconds, the hosts are all over the place here.

They keep giving the ball away to Bodo/Glimt, who are a more than competent outfit.

They are moving the ball nicely from side-to-side and finding gaps in midfield and defence.

At Sporting, Ruben Amorim's team rarely conceded many goals.

In his final 26 home matches, Sporting conceded more than one goal only once.

Tonight, it took 23 minutes...

GOAL! Tottenham 1-1 Roma - Evan N'Dicka

HUGE HEADER!

Radu Dragusin gives away a cheap free-kick on the left.

Paulo Dybala steps up and curls the ball into the box.

The big centre-back Evan N'Dicka rises above everyone in the box to glance a header in off the crossbar.

Claudio Ranieri will be pleased with his side's response at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium!
