Marcus Rashford motivated by winning silverware with United
Marcus Rashford said winning silverware is a key aim for him and his Manchester United team-mates this season as we sealed our place in the Emirates FA Cup fourth round on Friday evening.
It was United's eighth home win in a row, while Rashford’s stoppage-time penalty in front of the Stretford End ensured he has now netted in all of our last seven outings in M16.
Rashford: We're heading in the right direction
Marcus Rashford is keen to keep the momentum going, after putting in a stellar performance at the Theatre of Dreams...
“Yeah, that’s the aim,” Rashford told ITV Sport after the game. “That’s why we do what we do and why we work so hard.
“Obviously, it’s always nice to go through in cup games and the FA Cup is definitely a special competition to play in."
United 3 Everton 1
ArticleThe Reds are through to the fourth round of the Emirates FA Cup after beating the Toffees at Old Trafford.
“They’re [Everton] under a bit of pressure,” our Academy graduate continued. “But I thought they did well, they didn’t panic after they conceded so early on.
“They got back in the game twice – one was offside – so they’re still fighting for each other and still a team. Hopefully things get better for them.”
Things we noticed in United v Everton
ArticleTalking points include Antony scoring in another competition debut, Rashford's run and Ten Hag's defensive changes.
Now up to 13 goals in all competitions this season, and having recently passed the 100-goal mark for the club, Rashford agreed that his current run in front of goal is the best of his career so far.
“Yeah, probably, goalscoring form, this is probably up there with the best that I’ve been,” he added. “I feel good on the pitch, and I’m getting in positions and areas to score goals.
"If they (his team-mates) keep creating chances, I feel at the minute, I’ll keep scoring.”
