On Tuesday night, RASMUS HOJLUND and his brother Oscar did not appear on the field at the same moment.
They did, however, experience a heartwarming moment when the Manchester United player interrupted his younger brother’s interview.

When Manchester United and Copenhagen played off in the Champions League earlier this week, the Danish duo were only five minutes away from sharing the Old Trafford pitch.
Rasmus was substituted in the 86th minute, while Oscar came on in the 91st minute for Copenhagen.
But that didn’t stop them from catching up after the game, as Rasmus barged into his younger brother’s TV interview and joined him in answering questions.
Oscar was strolling behind him when the £72m guy tricked him by knocking the microphone he was speaking into away from his mouth.
He then came around the barrier and embraced his brother after what had been a great night for the two.
On social media, fans reacted quickly to the emotional moment.
One wrote: “This is just beautiful to watch.”
While another added: “Such a funny and unexpected moment! Sibling moments are always the best.”

A third joked that their relationship topped that of brothers Gary and Phil Neville, writing: “This bromance > Nevilles.”
Despite not being able to play against his brother, Ramsus explained how special it was to even feature in the same game.
He said: “It’s incredible. It’s a great feeling that I’ve been on the same pitch as my brother,
“Not only a normal stadium in Denmark, but it’s maybe one of the most special stadiums in the world [Old Trafford] so it’s an incredible feeling.”
Oscar, who was on the losing side when Manchester United won 1-0 in Europe, may not have had such a great night.
Copenhagen has dropped to the bottom of Group A, while Erik ten Hag’s side has earned their first Champions League points of the season after losses to Bayern Munich and Galatasaray.
The name Hojlund may become increasingly familiar to football fans around Europe.
Oscar’s twin brother Emil is also a professional player at Copenhagen and the pair have been breaking into the first team together.
