Competition: Enter to win a Rashford no.10 shirt

Monday 13 February 2023 14:52

Manchester United fans around the world named Marcus Rashford as our Man of the Match for Sunday's Premier League victory over Leeds.

The homegrown hero was the clear winner of the award after receiving 51 per cent of the total votes cast in our poll.

That outcome was hardly surprising, given the importance of Rashy's breakthrough goal during a tense second half at Elland Road. 

Marcus headed in from a Luke Shaw cross to register his 21st goal of the season across all competitions, before Alejandro Garnacho doubled our advantage with a wonderful finish late on. 

To celebrate his Man-of-The-Match success, we are giving away a hero printed Rashford no.10 shirt in our latest competition

MAGNIFICENT MARCUS

Erik ten Hag embraced Rashford at the final whistle and, afterwards, he spoke glowingly about the no.10.

"I was saying to him 'what a strike'. It is what he is aiming for every game. I told him at the start of the season, in every game, you will come into a position to score a goal and you have the capabilities to score. So it's keeping that focus over 90 or 95 minutes. If you do that, you see that he can score with his left, right and his head.

"He is a great striker, in my perspective. When he makes his good movements, with this team, he will always get some scoring positions and then it is about finishing. He has the capabilities, the physical and technical skills to finish but also the capabilities physical to run there, to move there with the speed. He has athleticism, also to jump, and then it is about mentality keep the focus and the belief that he will score."

WE KNEW WE HAD TO FIGHT

United captain Harry Maguire praised the team's battling qualities at Elland Road and hoped our travelling fans enjoyed the occasion.

“It’s been a good season up to now. We still need a lot of improvement and the big games are coming, but it’s nice to come in and get a clean sheet and victory – it’s a good one for the fans.

“We knew we had to fight and battle for every ball and keep the ball out of our net. I think it is a credit to the lads that we stuck with it, the spirit and fight that we showed.

“We know how important this fixture is to our fans, having not got it [three points] at Old Trafford during the week, we were disappointed. Today was about revenge, and we got that.”
