"It was very good. It is always special to play on your birthday but today of course with the win, yeah," the youngster told Sky Sports News after the win over West Ham.
"I have spoken about doing a celebration with my friends and they said about doing the guitar.
"A month ago there was a lot of talk about us [Hojlund and Garnacho] not scoring enough goals but we are both young and growing every day. You can see the connection between us."
Meanwhile, Garnacho added: "I am very happy because I scored two goals. I am enjoying it a lot playing for this club with this stadium and the fans. We are happy."

Hojlund later added to BBC Sport: "It has always been there, I have always believed in myself, it has just been about getting the rhythm going. You get one goal, then two and get a bit of momentum and start linking up with the players.
"I spoke with my teammates and manager because we need to make each other better, that is what it is about. I want to be involved as much as possible.
"I also worked a lot on myself, I looked at my game and what I could improve. I think I have developed a lot since I've been here."
Hojlund also impressed for Man United in the group stage of this season's Champions League, finding the back of the net on five occasions in six appearances.
