Hjulmand long range strike. Denmark’s Hjulmand scores from distance to tie the game versus England. It is just not often you see a laser of a shot like this from outside the box.
England’s Jordan Pickford really had no chance to save the shot. The ball is hit with such pace and goes in off the post as Pickford dives to get a finger on it.
It is an exceptional goal for Denmark by Hjulmand. He didn’t hesitate and the crowd of England players probably prevented Pickford from seeing the ball.
Moreover, Hjulmand’s goal is already being called the goal of the Euro 2024 tournament. Take a look at the video of this amazing long range strike. This is Hjulmand’s first goal for Denmark. What a way to do it. From nearly forty yards away. You really can’t hit a soccer ball better than Hjulmand does here.

Unfortunately, it was Harry Kane who gave the ball away. Kane tries to play a cross field pass and Denmark pounces on it. I guess Kane was trying to get the ball to Jude Bellingham in the center of midfield. A terrible pass by Kane. Knowing Kane though, he’ll try to score again to make up for it.

Hjulmand long range strike is something he’ll never forget. Only 24 years old, Hjulmand plays for Sporting Clube de Portugal. Being so young, he will have a chance to top this goal in the future. However, that will be hard to do. The power, pace and distance make it a unique goal.
Stats from BBC Sports: Morten Hjulmand’s goal was the 13th from outside the box at Euro 2024. That’s already more than the entire Euro 2020 group stage. Hjulmand’s the best of the bunch and from the furthest away.
