Manchester United had three loaned players in action on Wednesday night.

To follow where all of United’s loanees are in action this season, click here.

Rasmus Hojlund

The Dane was coming off the back of a stunning brace versus Juventus at the weekend.

Hojlund had much less impact on this match, as his side fell to a 2-0 defeat to Jose Mourinho’s SL Benfica.

He only managed one shot on goal, which was blocked. Hojlund was also unable to complete any key passes in the match.

The 22-year-old also failed to complete any of his dribble attempts in the match. He was only able to win 17% of his aerial duels on a poor night’s work.

Hojlund will next be in action when Napoli return to the league to play Udinese away on Sunday afternoon.

Radek Vitek

The Czech keeper conceded two goals in Bristol City’s 2-2 draw with Leicester City.

He failed to save a penalty in the match but made a total of three saves.

The young keeper also completed his only high claim and completed 86% of his passes.

Vitek will next be in action when Bristol City travel to league leaders Coventry City on Saturday afternoon.

Dan Gore

Gore played the full 90 minutes of Rotherham United’s 0-3 loss to Blackpool.

In a disappointing night, he failed to complete any key passes or any of his three attempted crosses.

He did manage to find his target with 87% of his passing attempts, though. Gore also won two tackles and completed seven ground duels in a competitive midfield battle.

Gore will next be in action when Rotherham travel to Plymouth on Saturday afternoon.
