Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund being collared by Casemiro late into Sunday's defeat at Arsenal.

Casemiro was seen shaking debutant Hojlund at a corner with the scores locked at 1-1.

He recalled: "I really just think that he was happy that I gave the team a slightly different dynamic compared to what you get from (Anthony) Martial.

"He is perhaps a little more technically strong and looks down into the gaps, whereas I like to take up the fights.

"Casemiro hadn't seen me play either, so as he also told me after the match, he was pleasantly surprised by me."

What did he say at the time?

"He just said something in Spanish: 'Vamos' or something like that."
