Manchester United have secured their first win in the Europa League under new coach Ruben Amorim. The English side beat Bodö/Glimt 3:2 on matchday 5, and not without some effort.
The Norwegians led 2:1 at Old Trafford until shortly before the break, when the Dane Rasmus Höjlund turned things around with two goals (45th and 50th). The 21-year-old, who like Manchester United has generally fallen short of expectations so far this season, had already provided the assist for Alejandro Garnacho's 1-0 after 50 seconds.
Kevin Mbabu suffered a defeat. The Geneva full-back lost 2-1 at home to Eintracht Frankfurt with the Danes of FC Midtjylland. It was the sixth win in a row for Frankfurt, for whom the Egyptian Omar Marmoush scored a goal and provided an assist.
