Manchester United loanee Rasmus Hojlund's post has gone viral after he scored a brace in Napoli's 2-1 Champions League win over Sporting Lisbon.
Hojlund gave Napoli the lead on 36 minutes by running on to a pinpoint Kevin De Bruyne through ball before slotting home.
After Sporting equalised through Colombia forward Luis Suarez's penalty, Hojlund scored the decisive goal with 11 minutes left to play.

The Dane combined with ex-Manchester City star De Bruyne once again, with Hojlund heading the Belgian's cross into the back of the net after getting to the ball ahead of Sporting goalkeeper Rui Silva.
The 22-year-old now has four goals in all competitions for Napoli since signing on loan from United in the summer.
He was allowed to depart Old Trafford, on loan with an obligation to buy if conditions are met, after being made surplus to requirements by manager Ruben Amorim.
Hojlund's performances in Europe have largely mirrored those from his time at United - he scored six Europa League goals last season - with the Dane's main struggles at Old Trafford revolving around his lack of goals in the Premier League.

He scored only four goals across the entirety of last season in the English top flight, though has walked into a side who are reigning Serie A champions and full of confidence.
And the 22-year-old is clearly enjoying life in Naples, judging by his post-match Instagram post.
Taking to the social media platform, the Dane posted a photo of himself celebrating his goal, along with the caption: "'Hojlund scores twice in the Champions League after two assists from Kevin De Bruyne' was not on my 2025 bingo card."

Reacting to the post, one United fan wrote: "Rasmus was never the problem. He never had proper service."
Another said: "Not surprised that a striker is scoring goals when a team actually passes the ball to their striker."
And a third stated: "I'm pleased for him. Mistreated and misused by us. Well done lad."
Speaking post-match, Hojlund praised De Bruyne and said it is 'very special' to play alongside him for Antonio Conte's side.

"I'm happy to play for Napoli in the Champions League, because I love to score in Europe," he told Stan Sport AU.
"To play with a player like Kevin, it's very special. I've played with a lot of incredible players in Manchester United as well, but Kevin is an exceptional talent.
"He's won so much, and he's a legend of the game. For me, it's about finding the spaces and he'll put the ball in the spaces for me to run on to."
