Rasmus Hojlund is already giving Manchester United what they wanted

After just 87 minutes worth of football, it is already becoming clearer why Manchester United identified Rasmus Hojlund as their ideal candidate to strengthen their forward line.

Though he has failed to get off the mark in each of his first two outings for the club, it would have been very different had it not been for a VAR call.

The Danish international thought he had marked his full debut for United with a goal in Saturday's 3-1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford, only for VAR to rule that Marcus Rashford had carried the ball out of play in the build-up.

It meant the 20-year-old, snapped up from Atalanta last month for an initial fee of £64million, was denied his breakthrough moment.
