Manchester United earn a vital win in their fight for European qualification thanks to Rasmus Hojlund's double in a fast start at Luton.
Rasmus Hojlund, aged 21 years and 14 days, is the youngest player to score in six consecutive Premier League games
Luton Town, in an uproarious atmosphere, responded with defiance and character, Carlton Morris swiftly giving the Hatters hope with a header as United struggled to cope with the intensity of the home side, especially in the opening half. While experienced players such as Casemiro, so lucky to avoid a second yellow card, Maguire and Raphael Varane struggled and were exposed by the sheer energy of Luton's approach, it was match-winner Hojlund and outstanding 18-year-old Kobbie Mainoo who stepped up.
Mainoo, meanwhile, rose above the blood and thunder with rare composure for one so young. United have a gem on their hands. The Hatters could have been forgiven for thinking their day was done when they conceded two goals in only seven minutes but, galvanised by the home support, Rob Edwards' side responded superbly and were right back in it after Morris' goal.
