'Mr €80m complains. Real men played 15 years ago': San Marino player who tried to injure Hojlund hits back

Reacting to Rasmus Hojlund's accusations, San Marino defender Roberto Di Maio wrote on Instagram: "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 Hojlund, good luck."

Hojlund was battered by San Marino defenders on Tuesday win with some of the tackles looking more like deliberate attempts to injure the 20-year-old.

Towards the end of the game, the Manchester United striker was kneed by 41-year-old centre-back Di Maio who made no attempt to even try and win the ball.
