Rasmus Hojlund made history with Manchester United on Sunday, scoring after 36 seconds against Luton Town at Kenilworth Road. The Danish striker gave United the lead when he rounded Luton goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski to slot home after a poor back pass attempt by Amari’i Bell.
Just five minutes later, he made it 2-0 to Erik ten Hag’s side when he chested home an Alejandro Garnacho shot that was flying wide. With his goals against Luton, the former Atalanta forward has become the youngest player to score in six consecutive games in the Premier League. He surpassed Joe Willock’s previous record of 21 years and 272 days old when he notched in the opening minute.
