The striker's somewhat comical celebration got fans talking, with many struggling to understand what it really meant.

However, speaking after the match, the Denmark international explained the story behind the celebration.

"I spoke about doing a celebration for my friends," he told Sky Sports.

"They told me to do the guitar back in the summer, and I hadn't done it yet, so today was the day," he added.
