Rasmus Hojlund tears into Manchester United teammate in Europa League win
- Rasmus Hojlund was spotted arguing with a teammate after starring in Manchester United’s win in the Europa League
- The Danish striker bagged a brace as a substitute to help his side complete a comeback win over Viktoria Plzeň
- The 21-year-old had a chance to complete a hattrick late on, but he failed to get the ball, much to his frustration
Rasmus Hojlund came from the bench and scored twice to help Manchester United beat Viktoria Plzeň in the Europa League on Thursday night.
It was another lacklustre showing from Ruben Amorim’s side as they struggled to break down the Czech side.
Amorim was looking to bounce back after suffering back-to-back defeats in the Premier League. Andre Onana endured another torrid night after his attempt to play from the back was cut out before being turned in by Matej Vydra three minutes after the restart.
The Red Devils’ blushes were, however, spared by Hojlund, who scored in the 62nd and 88th minute to guarantee maximum points for Amorim.

Why was Hojlund angry at Amad Diallo?
The Dane striker could have bagged a hattrick in stoppage time but Amad Diallo failed to square the ball, much to his frustration.
There was a small incident after the final whistle, with Hojlund seemingly confronting his teammate for failing to pass the ball. Fans online jumped on the moment with varied takes.

@eeemz_em said,
“Hojlund still mad at Amad Diallo for not passing to him? Terrible guy scores and starts thinking he’s all that.”
Ennies Lobby said,
“How many attacks has Rasmus killed, though? It’s childish. We won the game. He scored because of Amad to begin with.”

While Dylan said,
“Rightfully so.. very poor decision-making from Amad for the goal and the chance after.”
SirLord said,
“Until these boys get to know when to pass and when to score, we are never competing for anything.”
What next for Manchester United?
Amorim will now train his focus on his first Manchester derby on Sunday before playing Tottenham next week in the Carabao Cup quarter-final.
Amorim’s warning to Rashford
TUKO.co.ke has also reported that Amorim fired a warning to Marcus Rashford after their loss to Nottingham Forest on December 7.
Rashford walked down straight the tunnel instead of applauding fans, a thing that ha sput him at crossroads with his new manager.

EPL: Fulham must move on from defeat to Manchester City — Iwobi
Alex Iwobi says Fulham must stay positive despite their 5-4 defeat to Manchester City at Craven Cottage on Tuesday.
Marco Silva’s side put up a spirited display in the encounter, and were unlucky not to get at least one point.
Iwobi started the fight back by scoring the second goal for Fulham early in the second half.
The versatile midfielder’s compatriot, Samuel Chukwueze then rose from the bench to score two more goals for the Cottagers.
Manchester City, however, held on to go home with maximum points.
Iwobi stated that they deserved more from the game.
“I feel disappointed because we didn’t get anything out of the fighting spirit that we showed, but I think we have to take the positivity from the game,” Iwobi told the club’s official website.
Fulham will be away to Crystal Palace in their next Premier League game on Sunday.

EPL: Guardiola names team that impresses him everyday
Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola has named the Premier League club that has impressed him so much this season.
The Spaniard said that Enzo Maresca’s side have really impressed him with the improvement they make everyday.
Speaking after Manchester City beat Fulham 5-4 in the Premier League on Tuesday night, Guardiola pointed out that a team must remain consistent to win the title.
Pep Guardiola’s side closed the gap at the top of the Premier League to just two points behind Arsenal with the victory over Fulham, but the Gunners could maintain their five points lead with a win over Brentford on Wednesday night.
“Chelsea impresses me more and more every day with Enzo [Maresca], but it’s long,” he told reporters after the win.
“Premier League is so long, many things will happen. We won six Premier Leagues, four or five when we in December, January or February we were behind.
“The team who wins the Premier League is the team who grows during the months and this is what we try to do. No injuries, it’s so long.
“But at the same time, if we push, we will be better and push ourselves and control the situations better, the emotions and we will see what happens.”

Outrage As ‘Biological Male’ Wins World’s Strongest Woman Event in Texas (Photos)
The 2025 World’s Strongest Woman final has sparked outrage after an alleged transgender athlete won gold.
American Jammie Booker, who is accused of being a biological male, beat Great Britain’s Andrea Thompson to victory at the event in Arlington, Texas.
According to Mail Online, Thompson walked off the podium, appearing to say ‘this is bulls***,’ while Booker celebrated. The Brit has since been crowned the ‘true World’s Strongest Woman’ by her coach and some of her peers.

Rebecca Roberts, a three-time winner of World’s Strongest Woman, has sensationally claimed that no one – not even the organizers – knew about Booker’s background.
Details on the American are not clear, but the publication sighted a YouTube video – uploaded to what appears to be Booker’s YouTube channel in September 2017, with Booker saying: ‘Everyone is dying to tell their own story and I am obviously no exception to that.
‘I’m 21-year-old trans woman with a history of abuse, struggling to stay true to herself while under the rule of her religious parents.’
On Monday night, Roberts posted a picture on Instagram that read ‘Protect Women’s Sports.’ She wrote alongside the picture: ‘I hold no hate toward transgender people. Everyone deserves dignity, respect, and the freedom to live their truth.

But I cannot stay silent about something that threatens the fairness and future of women’s strength sports. Transgender women, people born male, should not be competing in the women’s category.
This isn’t about identity. It isn’t about politics. It’s about the undeniable physical differences that exist in strength-based sports… differences that don’t disappear, and that matter more here than almost anywhere else. Women’s categories were created for a reason, and if we lose that, we lose the foundation of our sport.
‘What happened this weekend wasn’t transparent. None of us knew. Not even the organisers knew. And when fairness is taken by surprise, trust in the sport begins to crack.
‘My message is simple. Trans people belong in sport, but women’s divisions must remain biologically born female-only.
‘I love this sport. I have given my life to it. And I won’t ignore something that could quietly change it forever. Congratulations to @andreathompson_strongwoman… the true World’s Strongest Woman 2025’
