Agencies
As the game against Olympique de Marseille ended last night, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg proved to be the star player for Tottenham Hotspur Football Club. However, the player was seen getting angry in the 28th minute of the game.

Meanwhile, Tottenham needed one point to qualify for a place in the Champions League knockout stages. The match was going smoothly, and the point was expected, placing the team as the runners-up of Group D. However, Hojbjerg turned the tide. He struck gold with the last kick and placed his team at the top of the table.

However, as the match started, Tottenham played poorly from the start until the break. What added to their woes was Son Heung-min’s injury after he collided with Chancel Mbemba. In the 27th minute, Heung-min had difficulty walking off the pitch.

After Heung-min’s departure, Tottenham spent one minute without a replacement player, playing with only 10 members. This angered Hojbjerg, and he directed his anger at his team for being slow to send in a substitute player.

Meanwhile, Hojbjerg has scored four goals and four assists in the current season and can end up with 15 goals and assists as the season ends.
