Rasmus Hojlund, a Man Unirted striker, smiled brightly and seemed ecstatic to hear the lovely song of the Champions League. It’s really a shame the Red Devils couldn’t get a point against Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena.
Man Unirted was defeated 3-4 in Bayern’s away encounter this morning (September 21). Man Unirted’s two goals came from Hojlund (49′) and Casemiro (88′, 90+5′, respectively). Sane, Gnabry, Kane, and Mathys Tel scored for the Gray Tigers on the opposing side of the front line. The loss against Bayern extended Man Unirted’s poor run. This is their fourth defeat in six matches since the start of the season (3 in the Premier League, 1 in the Champions League), as well as their third straight defeat in the last three weeks.
Hojlund recalls a memorable match in his maiden Champions League appearance. When he first heard the heroic melody and spirit of the familiar song in the Champions League, everyone observed Hojlund’s emotional expression and brilliant smile.
Fans were particularly pleased to see Hojlund enjoying the Champions League song on social media:
Take a look at Hojlund; he enjoys the Champions League song.

Rasmus Hojlund’s goal came in the 49th minute, with Man Unirted leading Bayern Munich 0-2 at the time. The Danish player received a pass from a teammate and managed it expertly in the penalty area. He turned and fired a shot that was not overly powerful but dangerous enough to give Man Unirted their first goal in the 2023/24 Champions League group stage.
This is Rasmus Hojlund’s first goal for Manchester United since moving to Old Trafford. Previously, he scored against Brighton in the Premier League, but the goal was disallowed because Rashford let the ball go out of bounds.
Bayern eventually overcame Man Unirted 4-3 at Allianz Arena in the first match of Group A Champions League 2023/24. Many people assumed that Man Unirted played a match comparable to Bayern, but in actuality, the Red Devils were vastly inferior to their opponents. Bayern would have undoubtedly poured goals into Man Unirted’s net if it hadn’t been for the goal being regularly denied by the post. Erik ten Hag and his crew view a close loss with a score of 3-4 to be a “positive” result.
