Denmark striker Rasmus Hojlund imitated Cristiano Ronaldo’s trademark “Siuuu” celebration after scoring the winning goal against Portugal in a Nations League quarter-final clash on Thursday but said he was not trying to make fun of his “idol”.

The Manchester United forward’s 78th minute strike earned Denmark a 1-0 first leg win over Ronaldo’s Portugal, with the 40-year-old veteran striker completely frozen out at the other end on a frustrating night.
