After Denmark’s decisive 1-0 victory over Finland, Rasmus Hojlund inspired Manchester United supporters with a stirring speech.
In the second half of Denmark’s Euro 2024 qualifier in Helsinki, Hojlund, who made his Man United debut against Arsenal before the break, entered the game.
And the Danes took home all three points after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg of Tottenham scored with four minutes remaining to earn an important victory.
In an effort to guarantee their place in the tournament in Germany the following summer, Denmark holds one of the qualification spots in Group H.
Slovenia is also on 13 points, Finland has 12, and Kazakhstan has 12, thus Kasper Hjulmand’s team still has work to do to secure their spot at Euro 2024.
Holland, though, expressed his confidence in his team’s progress to the traveling crowd after their victory over Finland on Sunday.
I heard you all, and your passion is everything in football,” he said over a megaphone.
Hojlund’s gesture, made at the age of barely 20, demonstrates both his leadership skills and elite attitude.
Following his £72 million summer signing from Atalanta, he made an impression in his Premier League debut.
On social media, his cameo appearance at the Emirates thrilled Man United supporters as he demonstrated what he can provide upfront.
The young forward is very close to being fully fit, so Erik ten Hag might use him against Brighton on Saturday, 16 when the Red Devils resume their league season.
