The Mancunian player played a key role in England’s victory in Wembley 

Manchester United’s striker Marcus Rashford was one of the good news in England in their 3-1 victory against Italy in Wembley on the eighth day of the Euro 2024 qualifiers. The Mancunian player, who returned to the lineup after several games where the Tottenham player James Maddison had covered his position on the left wing of the attack, was placed in the starting XI by the coach Gareth Southgate, and he did not defraud.

Rashford, who has scarcely scored one goal in ten games played with Manchester United this season, had already been discussed by his own coach at the Mancunian club, as Erik Ten Hag has publicly claimed that he needs to take better decisions in attack to start scoring goals.

However, Rashford hit the criticism around his figure in a new spectacular performance with the England national team, where he could score again after receiving a great pass in a sensational counterattack initiated by Jude Bellingham, the man of the match against Italy, who found in Rashford one of his best partners in crime in the Three Lions’ attack.

Rashford returned to the scoring path just before playing for United

The action happened at the 57th minute of the game, when Bellingham ran with the ball and sent a long ball on Marcus Rashord, placed on the left wing and approaching the rival goal to beat Donnarumma with a beautiful crossed shot to the left of the goalkeeper. The play was one of the usual movements of Rashford, who returned to the scoring path just a few days before Manchester United’s visit to Bramall Lane where they will face Sheffield United.
