San Marino players clash with Man Utd striker Hojlund: He's lying!

Manchester United striker Ramus Hojlund clashed with San Marino players during last night's Euros qualifying win for Denmark.

San Marino took the lead before the Danes fought back to win 2-1.

Hojlund was upset with the attention of San Marino's players and later said: "I feel they targeted me, as you can see at the end.

"I understand Italian and I could hear them saying that they had the idea to crush me."

However, San Marino defender Alessandro Tosi insisted: "That's not true.

"We only told him that he was not behaving properly. What he did was not necessary. He is a very strong striker, but he was not fair at all.

"I haven't lost respect for him completely, but we expected better behaviour. His behaviour when celebrating was unacceptable."

Tosi added: "Hojlund plays in a league against defenders who are far more skilled, physical and tougher than us, so he should be used to these kinds of duels."
