PLZEN - Manchester United learnt lessons from their bland first half at Viktoria Plzen and sped up the action in the second period, allowing them to get a 2-1 win in the Europa League on Dec 12, manager Ruben Amorim said.

Striker Rasmus Hojlund, coming off the bench for an ineffective and lacklustre Marcus Rashford, scored twice after the break to allow United to come back from a goal down for their third consecutive European win.

"We improved during the game. We controlled the game in the first half, but without any great chances," Amorim told TNT Sports.

"We lacked speed and movement, and we didn't control the ball because the pitch was difficult to make the connections with the strikers. Viktoria didn't have chances either.

"In the second half, we gave a goal away but we reacted well. We pushed the opponents to their own half and we managed to score. The win is important at the moment and it's good to prepare for the next game."
