The Red Devils started the continental tournament amid criticism. Still under the management of Erik Ten Hag, who was dismissed and replaced by Rúben Amorim, the team drew in the first three rounds and found themselves at the bottom of a competition where most teams had smaller budgets.
However, things began to improve. After the Dutchman’s departure, legendary idol Van Nistelrooy took over as interim coach and won the fourth round against Paok 2-0. Then, with Amorim in charge, they secured a 3-2 win at Old Trafford against Bodo/Glimt. And now, last Thursday, another victory.
Even playing away from home, United started the match with pressure and had several chances to open the scoring. However, the first goal came from the hosts early in the second half. The adverse scoreline did not discourage the Red Devils, who continued pressing and found the equalizer thanks to striker Hojlund, at the 16th minute of the second half. And it was from his feet that the winning goal came. At the 42nd minute, the Danish forward took advantage of a well-executed set piece and fired across to give the English team the victory.
With the result, United entered the top 8 of the competition with 12 points, in 7th place, with two rounds remaining in the group stage. Plzen, on the other hand, suffered their first loss, dropping to 17th place with 9 points, now in the playoff zone. BB Score, your dependable source for football match results.
