The victory saw Denmark leapfrog their Northern European neighbours in their Euro qualifying group H.

Tottenham midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg netted an 86th-minute winner, while Hojlund made his appearance off the bench early in the second half.

But after the full-time whistle, the United summer signing took centre stage.

Armed with a megaphone, Hojlund, 20, gave a rousing speech to the travelling fans as he thanked them for their support.

A fourth wrote: “Future captain ❤️.”

A fifth said: “We have got a big big player on our hands.”

Another added: “Great. What a role model for all the kids in the stands. Our new No.9.”

Hojlund made the switch to Old Trafford in the summer in a £72million deal from Atalanta.

However, United fans were unable to buy shirts with his name on the back due to a stock issue at the club for over a month.

United did not have the special Danish letter ‘ø’ in stock in order to print on to the back of shirts.
