Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg responds perfectly to Josh Dasilva’s horror tackle on Twitter

Tottenham Hotspur’s Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg may be a tough man on the pitch, but he has shown he’s a true gentleman, sending Brentford’s Josh Dasilva a touching message following his bad tackle in the half -final of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.

Spurs booked their spot in April’s centerpiece with a 2-0 win over the Bees, but the evening was almost marred by Dasilva’s late challenge, which left Hojbjerg bleeding profusely from bad cuts to his shin .

The 22-year-old Brentford man was kicked out for his challenge, but took to Twitter to apologize for his actions, writing: “Anyone who knows me knows it was never intentional… will learn from that. ” Hojbjerg saw the tweet and responded brilliantly, showing that he claims class bags on and off the pitch.

“Of course you didn’t mean it. So don’t worry. I’m a viking and I’m fine. But… you owe me a new shin pad, ”he joked.
