In six matches for Napoli, Hojlund has scored four goals, including a brace in the Champions League game against Sporting.

He started the match against Belarus, highlighting his form after scoring in the game against Greece.

The match was played without spectators in Hungary due to sanctions imposed on Belarus by UEFA for their support of Russia in the current war with Ukraine.

In the 19th minute, Hojlund put Denmark ahead with a precise shot after a pass from Victor Frokholt.

He later scored another goal just before half-time, hitting the net after a shot from Manchester United defender Patrick Dorgu.

In the last minute of the first half, Hojlund became an assister, passing the ball to Dorgu for his goal.

A substitution occurred in the 77th minute with the score 5-0 in favor of Denmark.

Besides Hojlund and Dorgu, former Manchester United player Christian Eriksen also played in the match.

The 33-year-old Eriksen left Manchester United as a free agent at the end of last season.

After a fruitless summer without a club, he signed a contract with Wolfsburg last month.

Currently, he has played three matches for the Bundesliga team as a substitute.

In the match against Denmark, Eriksen appeared on the field at half-time.
