“It was not a lack of respect.”

Cristiano Ronaldo responded to the tradition of Rasmos Holund to celebrate the famous “SEO”, saying that he was “not respected” after his victory over Denmark’s home 1-0 against Portugal on Thursday.

The Manchester United striker copied the famous celebration in Red Devil after recording a late winner in Copenhagen in the quarter -finals of the Nations League.

Holund insisted that the celebration was not mocking Ronaldo, who was described by Deniums as a “idol”, and the 40 -year -old said he was not insulting the accident.

“For me, it’s not a problem,” Ronaldo said. “I know it was not a work of lack of respect. I’m smart enough to realize this.

“Not only is, all over the world, many athletes celebrate me.

“For me, it is an honor, but I hope he can see my celebration tomorrow (Sunday).”

Before Denmark’s trip to Lisbon at the end of the eight in the second fall on Sunday, Holund said: “(Ronaldo) had a great impact on me and my football career. This may have been somewhat contradictory, but to register against him and Portugal, he is huge.

“I remember that he scored a free kick in 2011 when I went to watch the match, and since then I was a huge Cristiano lover.”

Portuguese and Denmark winners will face either Italy or Germany in the semi -finals of the Nations League.

The Germans take a slim progress 2-1 to Dortmund after Tim Klindenst and Lyon Goritzka were supported by Milan.
