Cristiano Ronaldo could do nothing but watch as Rasmus Højlund hit his own celebration after the Manchester United striker scored the winner for Denmark against Portugal.
Despite Højlund's poor form for Manchester United as of late, the 22-year-old came up huge for his country in the first leg of Denmark's UEFA Nations League quarterfinal tie against Portugal. With the game deadlocked at 0–0, Brian Riemer called on Højlund off the bench in the 69th minute.
Nine minutes later, Højlund found the back of the net and secured Denmark's 1–0 victory over Portugal. With Ronaldo just a few yards behind him, Højlund hit the five-time Ballon d'Or winner's "I'm here" and "SIU" celebrations.
The goal gives Denmark the edge heading into the second leg of the tie on Sunday, Mar. 23 in Portugal. Riemer's men could have had a two-goal advantage, but Christian Eriksen failed to convert from the spot in the 24th minute.
