Manchester United forward Rasmus Hojlund continued his impressive scoring streak.
Rasmus Hojlund is one of the most in-form players in Europe right now. He scored again in another Denmark victory.
Hojlund scored Denmark’s opener in a 3-1 World Cup qualifying victory against Greece. He scored in the 21st minute as the Danes raced into a 3-0 half-time lead.
The Manchester United loanee played 70 minutes, and scored with his only shot at goal. Patrick Dorgu started on the bench and came on in the 76th minute to close out the win.
Denmark’s win keeps them top of their group, level on points with Scotland.
One of the two teams are now guaranteed to land an automatic spot, with the second having to go through the playoffs. Greece are in third place, seven points further back.

Manchester United sent Rasmus Hojlund out on loan to Napoli at the deadline after signing Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig.
Hojlund has settled in instantly in Italy, and has continued his scoring streak at international level.
He scored two goals in Denmark’s 6-0 win over Belarus on Thursday night.
Hojlund has now scored eight goals in his last nine games for club and country.
Napoli have a clause to buy Hojlund permanently at the end of the season for around £38 million.
