Denmark vs. Portugal
21 March 2025
Rasmus Højlund scored the only goal to seal a 1-0 win for Denmark over Portugal in the first leg of their Nations League quarterfinal.
Coming off the bench, Højlund netted in the 78th minute following a Christian Eriksen assist, celebrating with Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic “Siu” as Ronaldo watched from the sidelines. Eriksen earlier missed a penalty, but Denmark held firm to take a lead into Sunday’s second leg in Lisbon.
Gab Marcotti: “This was one of the worst Portugal performances.”
