Brace Hojlund, Bring Manchester United To A Thin 2-1 Win Over Luton Town On Kenilworth Road

JAKARTA - Manchester United managed to survive and won a narrow 2-1 match against Luton Town on Kenilworth Road, Sunday 18 February. Rasmus Hojlund, a young player who is in good form, scored a fast brace that brought victory to the Red Devils, even though Luton had given fierce resistance.

The first half started quickly for Manchester United when Hojlund scored just 37 seconds after the kick-off whistle sounded. The goal made him the youngest player in the club's history to score in six Premier League games in a row. Hojlund scored again just minutes later after taking advantage of Alejandro Garnacho's volley.

However, Luton Town didn't just give up. They managed to reduce the position to 2-1 after Carlton Morris scored in the 14th minute. Rob Edwards, coach of Luton Town, managed to raise his team's spirits, making it difficult for Manchester United to control the game.

The second half took place at a high tempo, but no additional goals were scored even though Ross Barkley almost scored the equalizer for the hosts.

Rasmus Hojlund's brilliant achievements are back in the spotlight. The young forward has scored seven goals in his last six Premier League games, showing a rapid increase in his performance.

However, several senior Manchester United players such as Casemiro and Harry Maguire had difficulties in the match. Casemiro was mainly criticized for missing six of the seven duels he had taken part in, and was almost kicked off the pitch after getting two yellow cards.

Erik ten Hag, Manchester United coach, praised Rasmus Hojlund's character after the match. Hojlund has shown extraordinary resilience and persistence since his early career at Old Trafford, and his consistent performance has become a valuable asset for the team.

With this victory, Manchester United extended their winning streak in the last four Premier League games and remain in the race to qualify for the Champions League.
