Man Utd Star Mocks Ronaldo With 'Siu' Celebration?

Manchester United and Denmark striker Rasmus Hojlund explains why he did the famous 'Siu' celebration in front of Cristiano Ronaldo after scoring against Portugal.

Hojlund came off the bench to net the winning goal as the Danes defeated Portugal 1-0 in the first leg of their UEFA Nations League quarter-final.

The Danish striker went on to do Ronaldo's trademark celebration, but insists he was paying homage to the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.

"It was not to mock him or anything, I've always said he has had great importance for me and my football career," Hojlund revealed to Danish broadcaster TV2.

"I'm playing against the world's best footballer, my idol, and to score and become the [match] winner, it couldn't be better.

"Scoring against him and Portugal is huge, I went to see him in 2009, where he scored from a free-kick, and I've been a fan ever since."

The second leg is set to take place on Sunday evening, with Denmark holding a 1-0 lead.
