Manchester United star Rasmus Hojlund has explained the reason behind his air guitar celebration against West Ham
Rasmus Hojlund has been having a good time with Manchester United lately. The 21-year-old was once again on the score sheet for his team as the Red Devils took a dominant 3-0 victory against West Ham.
His goal started with the brilliance of Casemiro who delivered the ball into the final third where it met Hojlund’s feet. The Dane was quick to feint away his defenders and struck it true to find the bottom corner.
Out of the 10 goals that Rasmus Hojlund has scored for Manchester United this one had to be the best and the celebration did not disappoint either. The 21-year-old ripped out the air guitar as he ran away in celebration.

“When I was with my friends in the summer, they told me I should do it and I hadn’t done it.”
“He reminded me, we had this short spell when I was in Denmark, and he reminded me I should do it.”
Hojlund went on to say that his promise to his friend had stuck with him so he thought about giving it a try. He also revealed that he received a guitar on Christmas which must’ve served as a constant reminder.
After being criticised by the media for most of the season, the 21-year-old has finally arrived. He now has seven goal contributions in his last six games for Manchester United.
He will be looking to add more to his tally next game as Manchester United prepares to take on Aston Villa.
