To celebrate the big goal, his seventh for De Rød-Hvide, Hojlund did the “Suii” celebration, which was originated and popularised by Cristiano.

I know it wasn’t out of disrespect,” Ronaldo told reporters, per Fabrizio Romano. “I understand that not only him but in all sports, there are people who celebrate like me. I hope that tomorrow he’ll be the one to see me celebrate!" Meanwhile, Hojlund has now scored in consecutive games. He scored in the 3-0 thumping of Leicester before the international break and against Portugal. He will hope to continue the scoring form after having struggled this season.
