Marcus Rashford reached an extraordinary milestone of 350 Manchester United appearances yesterday.
The 25-year-old was named in the starting line-up for United’s early kick-off outing against relegation candidates Everton.
He was unable to add to his tally of 28 goals throughout the match but assisted Anthony Martial for the second goal of the game, rounding off a dominant performance from the Red Devils.
Rashford’s club debut came back in February 2016 in a Europa League clash against FC Midtjylland. He replaced Martial after the Frenchman had picked up a knock in the warm-up and went on to score two goals in front of the Old Trafford faithful, a scenario which has since become the norm in M16.

His league debut also took the same trajectory just three days later; he introduced himself to the Premier League by registering a brace against a title-chasing Arsenal side at just 18 years old.
The academy graduate has always been a fan-favourite at the Theatre of Dreams for his love and dedication to the club he has been at his whole life. A Wythenshawe-born Red and United through and through – he knows what it means to play for the badge and is a fan just like the rest of us. He’s born to play in red and white.
