Rasmus Hojlund becomes youngest Man United player to score in four consecutive Premier League games
Rasmus Hojlund is on a great run in all competitions
Cristiano Ronaldo’s record was surpassed by Rasmus Hojlund as Manchester United defeated Wolves 4-3. Before adding a goal to his own tally at Molineux, Hojlund set up Marcus Rashford’s early goal.
Rasmus Hojlund scored and assisted on another goal in United’s previous Premier League match, a 2-2 tie at home against Tottenham. Hojlund, 20, is now the most youthful player for United to score and provide an assist in back-to-back Premier League games, according to TNT Sports.
Ronaldo, at 21 years old, set the record when he accomplished it in 2007.
In back-to-back Premier League matches against Watford and Tottenham in early 2007, Ronaldo notched goals and provided assists.
Hojlund has made 27 appearances since joining United last summer, scoring nine goals and dishing out two assists.
