Manchester United forward Rasmus Hojlund gave an emotional response when asked about scoring his first Premier League goal in the 3-2 Boxing Day win over Aston Villa.
The Danish forward had previously gone 14 league games without a goal, but his strike completed an astonishing United comeback against a side that would have gone joint-top of the Premier League table with a win.
As it stood, Villa went 2-0 up through goals from John McGinn and Leander Dendoncker, amid questionable defending.
But United fired back in the second half with aggression and constant pressure, and a brace from Alejandro Garnacho levelled the game with 20 minutes to play.

Up stepped Hojlund, who turned and swivelled in the box before striking a left-footed effort from 12 yards, which went in off the post.
Old Trafford erupted, and the Dane's celebration was one of pure relief and emotion.
It was no surprise, therefore, that his post-match interview followed along similar lines.
He told Amazon Prime Sport: "Yeah, it's been a while. I'm happy. I'm the happiest man alive right now!
"You can see in the celebrations as well. We believe until the end, and we showed a lot of character again today.
"Today we showed a lot of character, and we showed a lot of confidence as well."
When presenting Alejandro Garnacho with the Player of the Match award, Hojlund commented: "I love you," and received the same sentiment from his team-mate.
Meanwhile, captain Bruno Fernandes commented on United's general play in the match, and their Garnacho and Hojlund-led comeback: "Consistency is winning games, it doesn't matter how. People are going to look at results.
"We need to be more clinical. Everyone is aware of that, as a Manchester United player, you know you will be criticised more than praised. You need to adapt to that."
