Both players scored in the same game for the first time, with Rashford setting up Hojlund’s early opener and then finding the net himself after playing a delightful one-two with the Dane.
The duo were in tune throughout, coming close on several other occasions to creating goalscoring opportunities for each other and their Reds team-mates.
It was no surprise that the pair picked up the most votes in our Man of the Match poll, with Hojlund scooping the award for the first time in Reds colours.

Ultimately United were frustrated as Spurs twice came from behind to claim a point and deny Erik ten Hag’s side victory in the opening league game of 2024.
