Seven minutes into the game, United were already leading 2-0 thanks to a double from Hojlund, but the local team scored quickly and had chances to tie it until the final minute. Important victory for those of Ten Hag.
As part of matchday 25 of the Premier League, Manchester United achieved its fourth consecutive victory by beating Luton Town 2-1 as a visitor to remain five points behind Aston Villa, last in the Champions League positions. In addition, they took advantage of Tottenham’s defeat to be just three points behind fifth place.
On the unique Kenilworth Road, it all happened in the first few minutes. At 37 seconds, Hojlund took advantage of two gifts from Luton’s backfield – due to how badly he was stopped and a pass to the middle that left him one-on-one with the goalkeeper – and opened the scoring after leaving number 1, Thomas Kaminski, on the ground.
United struck again at 7, when Garnacho received the rebound from a corner kick, finished on goal and Hojlund put his chest to change the trajectory of the ball and declare the score 2-0. It seemed like it would be a quiet afternoon and even with the possibility of a win for United, but that was far from happening.
In the 13th minute, the home side quickly scored, and they came within striking distance thanks to the scoring appearance of their captain, Carlton Morris. And from there parity reigned in the more than 75 minutes that remained in the game. Towards the end of the match, the home team became more and more animated and cornered United against Onana’s goal, but Ten Hag’s team resisted and achieved the valuable victory.
