Manchester United fans were delighted to see Marcus Rashford back at his best tonight in the crucial Premier League clash away to Sheffield United.
The young English scored a brace in the 3-2 win and they were two stunning goals!
Rashford has had a shoulder injury to deal with in recent weeks, but tonight we saw him at his best so he deserved two goals and will hopefully build on this performance over the coming weeks.
The Reds need to go on a winning run to have a real chance at mounting a title challenge this season. Tonight they showed in parts that they can break teams down playing entertaining football.
Bruno Fernandes has been United’s saviour on many occasions this season, but it was nice to see Rashford step up to the plate tonight against Chris Wilder’s side.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to Rashford’s performance against Sheffield United:
Rashford is different class.

someone definitely told Rashford that Ramsdale is a Tory the way he hit that ball

Overall I thought it was a solid display from us tonight. Disappointed in the 2 goals that we conceded (very avoidable), but then again, the 3 goals that we scored were very well worked. Rashford, Pogba and Bruno were the standouts.

It’s the right time for Rashford and co to be reaching full match sharpness. The fixtures are coming fast but if we can get into the New Year with a winning run the table won’t look so bad for the Red Devils.
