Translation from goolge translate:

Today I read that Mr 80 million is complaining because yesterday he received less than great treatment from the defenders of San Marino. Well dear, probably in football like today where physical contact has disappeared you can allow yourself to make fun of us little opponents with ugly and repeated gestures or to simulate at every opportunity hoping for the VAR for a penalty. I would have liked to see you 15 years ago when only real men played football! You were a disappointment Hoejlund, good luck.

    Ever since I was a kid I have loved following the smallest teams in Europe like San Marino and Liechtenstein, hoping they would get results and loving the fun of seeing a bunch of low-level players, often amateurs, get the chance vs world class players. When San Marino not only scored, but straight up equalised, I literally told my friends that I was watching the game with that “you have no idea how much I’m loving this right now, just wish it didn’t happen against us!” But then we made it 2-1 and it became obvious that something was wrong, first with the Sanmarinese players chasing Højlund immediately after the goal, and then with Kjær, who is fluent in Italian, having a lot of talks with both the Sanmarinese captain and the referee. We now know that that was because their players were openly talking about injuring Højlund, which is just despicable. Leaves such a bitter taste in my mouth that this was the reaction from the San Marino team to nearly missing out on their biggest result ever. I want to love it, even if it was against my country tbh, but the surprisingly disgusting behaviour from several of their players makes it hard, sadly. For the record, yes, it is also childish of Højlund to shush (or whatever he did) vs a minnow that we should be destroying 6-0. But that still doesn’t make any of the career-ending behaviour okay at all. That knee in the back could’ve destroyed Højlund, like with Neymar. And he already has had back problems.

    There should be some straight up banishments for that. I remember when Joey Barton came out saying “yeah, I was trying to get as many City players sent off as possible” after his little deal in the City-QPR game in 2012, and getting cracked down on hard for that. UEFA has to take the same approach, though for a 41 year old player on a side that’s a micro nation, that’s probably not gonna mean much.

    I read it as Di Maria and was pleasantly surprised that he didn’t defend him, however, it turned out it wasn’t Di Maria.

    I think it’s really funny, why not have abit of banter after the match. These upset fans wouldn’t last a second in Sunday league, rougher tackles and harsher words said every match there lol

      “The images show that he had the intend to harm me. I think a yellow card is laughable. My back have seen better days, but it seems all right. But again I’m still warm so it’s hard to tell. I’m hoping it’s nothing serious” - Rasmus Højlund

      Now read Maio’s quote again and tell me who’s the crybaby. Or who’s the 20 years old and who’s the 41 year old manchild that gets sooo upset about a hand gesture that he not only jumps him but also spews even more salt the day after when the 20 year old has already moved on.

      Projection is strong with this one.
