Ruben Amorim Warns Rasmus Hojlund & Diogo Dalot Over Heated Exchange

Tension Rises as Hojlund Confronts Dalot During Man Utd’s Draw

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has issued a warning to his players after Rasmus Hojlund furiously reacted to Diogo Dalot’s decision-making during the 1-1 draw with Real Sociedad.

Hojlund’s Frustration Boils Over Amid Goal Drought

During the first half, Hojlund was visibly furious when Dalot failed to make a simple square pass that could have ended the striker’s 19-game goalless streak. Instead, Dalot chose to cut inside, wasting the opportunity, and Hojlund made his frustration known by yelling at his teammate.

Amorim, while understanding Hojlund’s emotions, emphasized that such reactions on the pitch are unacceptable.

“They are really anxious to score and win games. They all want to do their best, but sometimes they don’t make the best decisions. It was a clear situation—Hojlund made a great run, Dalot did well, but the decision wasn’t right. The key is to move forward, not argue on the pitch.”

Hojlund Struggles to Make an Impact

Not only did Hojlund fail to end his goal drought, but he also didn’t register a single shot throughout the game. However, Amorim defended his striker, highlighting his work rate and movement.

“He’s trying really hard, making runs and using his pace against high defensive lines. Sometimes the ball comes, sometimes it doesn’t. He needs to stay patient and focus on the next chance.”

What’s Next for Man United’s Striker?
