Hojlund continues his impressive streak since leaving Man Utd

During the early clash with Belarus, Rasmus Hojlund stood out again by netting 2 goals and assisting once, helping Denmark secure a 6-0 win. He was awarded the man of the match honor following the game.

In the early hours today, the Denmark national team continued to demonstrate their dominant strength at the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in the European zone by securing a commanding 6-0 victory over Belarus. This marked Denmark’s third consecutive win in Group C, propelling them to the top with 7 points from 3 matches.

Rasmus Højlund remained the focal point in this triumph. According to FotMob statistics, in the 77 minutes he played, the Napoli striker scored 2 goals, assisted once, achieved a 90% pass accuracy with 19 out of 21 successful passes, created 2 clear chances, and touched the ball 8 times inside the penalty area. With this outstanding performance, Højlund was voted the man of the match.

Højlund’s excellent form extends beyond the Belarus game. In his last 10 appearances for both Napoli and the Denmark national team, the former Manchester United forward has been directly involved in 8 goals, scoring 7 and assisting 1. This impressive record highlights Højlund’s true revival since leaving Old Trafford.

Before moving to Napoli on loan, Højlund had a challenging period at Manchester United, managing only 14 goals in 62 Premier League matches. Fierce competition in the attack and limited playing opportunities made it difficult for the Danish striker to fully showcase his abilities. However, after joining Napoli, Højlund gradually regained his form and confidence. His crucial goals for the Italian club and Denmark demonstrate not only his regained scoring touch but also his growing influence on the team’s overall play.

In fact, Højlund is currently one of the most consistent performers in Europe. If he maintains this level, Napoli activating the €44 million purchase option is highly likely. Meanwhile, the Denmark national team is also receiving strong support from this striker on their quest to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

The victory over Belarus not only solidifies Denmark’s lead in Group C but also proves they can explode offensively thanks to in-form stars like Højlund. If this momentum continues, Denmark could be serious contenders to advance to the World Cup finals, with Rasmus Højlund continuing to make his mark as one of Europe’s top scorers this season.
