MANCHESTER - Ole Gunnar Solskjaer again compared Marcus Rashford with Cristiano Ronaldo. This was revealed by the coach after Manchester United's win over Newcastle United, Thursday, December 26 evening.
Rashford scored his 11th Premier League goal of the season in a 4-1 Boxing Day win at Old Trafford. This is his best achievement in one season.
The Menchester United football academy dropout jumped past Fabian Schar to welcome Aaron Wan-Bissaka's delicious cross while making it 3-1 in the 41st minute.
Solskjaer previously compared the 22-year-old to former United star Ronaldo. And after Rashford scored a superb header, the manager did it again.
"He is an example of a physically strong player. He takes care of himself, works hard in the gym," Solskjaer told a news conference as reported by Soccerway.
"I remember a boy who used to play with me with that kind of header when he scored. And we often compare them.
"So that's another string on Marcus' bow (arrow) that Cristiano also used when he got to this age."
In this match, the Red Devils 'other three goals were scored by Anthony Martial (two goals, 24' and 51 ') and Mason Greenwood (36'). Meanwhile, Newcastle were only able to score one ball through Matty Longstaff's opener (17 ').
