After the full-time whistle, Amad and Hojlund had an altercation. The Danish striker had a great chance to score a hat-trick, but Amad chose not to pass to him.

The English giants are seventh in the Europa League with 12 points from six games.

Amorim on Hojlund and Amad argument
Amorim welcomed the altercation between the two players in his post-match press conference.
Yes (I was aware of that), and for me it’s perfect, we need to feel something," he said. "In this moment, we need to feel something, if we need to fight each other it’s like a family, for me it’s a very, very good sign. We need to feel something and that is important," Amorim said per Sky Sports.
"It’s a normal thing, it’s a positive thing, a healthy thing. So I let the players and the captain to calm down the things. If I think it’s too much I will go inside the dressing room."
The Red Devils face a limping Man City this weekend, aiming for their first derby win since the FA Cup final in May. Amorim's side last beat Man City in the league in February 2023.
