Man United Star’s Wild Celebration Gets Thumbs Up…
Looks like Rasmus Hojlund can keep channeling his inner Gladiator without fear of a yellow card! The Football Association is shrugging off the Manchester United star’s dramatic celebration during their 3-0 victory over Leicester City like it’s no big deal. After a goal drought that would make a desert blush, the 22-year-old Denmark native finally broke his dry spell and dashed straight to the United fans—cue Gladiator antics!
Now, don’t let the thumbs-up, rapid thumbs-down, and slightly over-the-top throat-slashing gesture alarm you; it’s no cause for concern. The FA has chosen to let it slide, considering the celebration more theatrical than threatening. It was a tribute to the Gladiator films, folks! Thankfully, after 99 days of keeping his hands in his pockets, Hojlund is relieved he can express his inner Roman warrior again with a nod from the officials.
With his confidence boosted to Roman Empire levels, Hojlund’s ready to score like he’s in a Roman coliseum! As Hojlund enjoys this goal-scoring renaissance, he hopes to keep “occupying” defenders and raising the scoreboards after the international break like it’s a sit-in protest—let’s raise a goblet of grape juice to that!
