After some amazing moments with Sporting CP in the UEFA Champions League, Ruben Amorim will be looking for magic with his new team, Manchester United. He will only be guiding the Red Devils in the UEFA Europa League for the second time. In his first game, his team took the lead inside 90 seconds and overcame Ipswich Town in the Premier League by a dreadful score of 1-1.

On November 29, 2024, Manchester United plays Bodoe/Glimt at Old Trafford in a pivotal Europa League match. With United in 15th place and Bodoe/Glimt in 12th, both teams are eager to advance to the next round. United, who are still unblemished but have drawn three games in this league, will want to win their second game under new coach Ruben Amorim.

The ideal beginning for United's match against Norwegian opponents at Old Trafford. Following the Reds' quick start against Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League, Manchester United player Bruno Fernandes demonstrated why he is the team's captain.

After 58 seconds, Alejandro Garnacho gives Bodo/Glimt the lead with the simplest goal of his career. In the Europa League, Manchester United leads Bodo/Glimt right away. The ideal beginning for United's match against Norwegian opponents at Old Trafford. Alejandro Garnacho was in the right spot at the right time to tap in as the ball slipped inside the area. Fernandes paused to reassure his teammates as Old Trafford erupted and the players celebrated.

Ruben Amorim becomes sixth manager

Amorim is the first head coach in United's history, but he is also the sixth person to hold the position in the turbulent 11-and-a-half years since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement. Garnacho became the first United player to score a goal at home under a new manager in that period, joining Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Nemanja Matić, and Jadon Sancho. Garnacho and Amorim will both be there, but it's not the beginning of the most recent false dawn at Old Trafford; rather, it's the beginning of better times to come.
