However, Bodo/Glimt responded with two early goals before the Norwegians were defeated by a double from Rasmus Hojlund.

As the players continue to become used to Amorim’s system, SunSport gave their performances the following ratings.

ANDRE ONANA – 6

Lucky to stay on after his mad dash out of the area ended with the ball striking his hand – a relieved man when VAR let him off.

NOUSSAIR MAZRAOUI – 7

DevilPage.pl - Manchester United - Oceny pomeczowe: Manchester United – Bodo /Glimt 3:2

Asked to play a more central role than he was under Erik ten Hag. Vital contribution to United’s equaliser

MATTHIJS DE LIGT – 6

Could have got across quicker for the visitors second or maybe he was caught in two minds. Hauled off midway through second half.

LISANDRO MARTINEZ – 6

Back after injury and may need time to adapt to Amorim’s new system. Replaced by Shaw on the hour.

ANTONY – 5

A fresh start under the new boss but he will have to do more than this if he is to force his way back into the reckoning.

MANUEL UGARTE – 7

Uruguayan has played under Amorim before and looks comfortable in the new system. Teed up Hojlund’s second of the night.

BRUNO FERNANDES – 6

Denied with a couple of efforts but the Portuguese has the quality to thrive under the new boss.

TYRELL MALACIA – 5

Tyrell Malacia makes first Man Utd appearance for 550 days v Bodo Glimt | Manchester United

Back after 17 month injury nightmare and totally outpaced for the second goal. Did not reappear for the second half.

MASON MOUNT – 7

Super curler against the bar early in second half – and a delightful flick in build up to United’s third. More like it from the ex-England man.

ALEJANDRO GARNACHO – 7

Alejandro Garnacho has scored the opener inside 48 seconds

The easiest goal he will ever score to give United early lead and should have had a couple more at least.

RASMUS HOJLUND – 8

Harried the keeper to set up the early goal and then scored a couple himself – with his first one a real beauty. Nice Gladiator celebration too. A big thumbs up.

SUBS:

DALOT for Malacia 46 – 6

Made the home side more comfortable defensively.

RASHFORD for Mount 59 – 5

Blazed one decent effort wide when United just wanted to finish the tie.

SHAW for Martinez 60 – 5

Second appearance off the bench as he feels his way back to fitness.

AMAD for Antony 59 – 5

Denied by the visitors keeper on a couple of occasions.

CASEMIRO for De Ligt 66 – 5

Asked to drop into the backline and had a testing end to the game.
