The winger did not score against the Bees, but he did grab an assist and created a game-high four chances. Following the comeback victory, United manager Erik ten Hag praised Rashford and hoped that the quality performances can continue.
“I think we all know [Rashford] is capable of a lot and when he has this attitude then he will…
