The match against Real Sociedad put RASMUS HOJLUND in a heated argument with one of his teammates.
The striker has not scored since his brace against Viktoria Plzen in December, and he is currently experiencing a lackluster run of play.
If Diogo Dalot had passed to Rasmus Hojlund, he would have had a fantastic opportunity to score.
The full-back wasted the opportunity by choosing to take his time.
The striker expressed his emotions to Dalot.
In the Europa League round of 16 first leg match in Spain, manager Ruben Amorim decided to deploy Hojlund in his assault.
The 22-year-old Hojlund had a fantastic opportunity to break his duck, but Diogo Dalot was unable to reach him with a pass at that moment.
The Dane lost his temper and threw himself at the defender.
Even the goal-shy former Atalanta striker was pitied by the supporters.
One wrote: “Right there is your difference between a right back and a right wing back.”
Another person said: “Dalot was furious with Hojlund for not passing to him during that attack when there was a chance. Correctly so.
A third wrote: “Dalot has every right to be angry with Hojlund for not crossing.”
“Ball had to be delivered first time and he ignored Hojlund.”
Another player commented: “I feel sorry for Hojlund as finally he made a good run inside the box and Dalot couldn’t put the ball into the box with ease.”
“Just a simple ball to Hojlund and it’s one on one with a keeper,” noted a fifth.
“Sorry about Hojlund,” another said. Dalot doesn’t play the pass; he just crosses the ball to give him a chance.”
Robbie Savage called Dalot’s action “unacceptable” during his broadcast on TNT Sports.
Paul Scholes, a legend of Manchester United, added that the defender ought to have passed the ball.
“They ought to be ahead; Dalot ought to have squared it to Hojlund,” he stated.
“They have players that are dangerous, but they haven’t posed a threat.
“That is precisely what they were doing; it is illegal for Dalot to have failed to notice that.
“Any right back not to see that in world football, it is criminal.”
In addition, Karen Carney blasted the defense, saying: “He [Hojlund] is very justified in feeling irritated.
“It’s a tap-in, and Dalot needs to give him that pass.
“Hojlund has every right to go to Dalot and dig him out.”
Since potential attacker Chido Obi was ineligible to play in the Europa League, Hojlund was given the opportunity to start.
Prior to the match versus Sociedad, the £72 million player has only scored seven goals in 35 games this season.
He has had better success in the Europa League, although only two of these goals have came in the Premier League.
Hojlund is the team’s top scorer in the competition with five goals.
Retired striker Wayne Rooney has even suggested that the team sign Danny Welbeck, 34, due to his troubles in front of goal.
The Brighton & Hove Albion forward has performed admirably on the South Coast this season and played with Roonye at Old Trafford.
After Garnacho squared the ball, Joshua Zirkzee scored his first goal in Europe, giving Manchester United the lead.
However, Mikel Oyarzabal gave the Basques a draw from the penalty spot after Bruno Fernandes’ handball.
