JAKARTA - Marcus Rashford further proves that Manchester United does not need the figure of Cristiano Ronaldo. After the Portuguese star left, Rashford continued to appear impressive for the Red Devils.
Most recently, Rashford scored two goals and scored one goal from the penalty spot as Manchester United beat Everton 3-1 in the FA Cup third round at Old Trafford, Saturday, January 6, early morning WIB.
Rashford became MU's first goal creator to be made by Antony in the third minute. He also became an actor when Everton's Conor Coady put the ball into his own net in the seventh minute of the second half.
The England forward then sealed a win towards the last minute when he converted a penalty after a foul on substitute Alejandro Garnacho.
Rashford stole the show after scoring goals in five consecutive games for the first time in the 25-year-old's career.
"The beauty of watching Marcus tonight is what I expect from him now. I'm not surprised by what I see," praised Manchester United legend Roy Keane, after the game.
"Hopefully he will become one of the pillar players for MU. Can he bring them back to win trophies? He can take responsibility."
"Tonight, with two assists and one goal, I think I expect this from Marcus every week. He clearly plays with confidence," he continued.
Meanwhile, with this result, MU also advanced to the fourth round of the FA Cup for the ninth season in a row in the midst of his efforts to hunt for the first trophy in the last six years, as reported by Antara from ESPN.
