#3 Was 18 years and 120 days old when he scored his first brace for United

In one of the uncanniest coincidences in world football, Rashford scored his debut brace in the Premier League at exactly the same age as his Manchester United captain and mentor, Wayne Rooney. His brace against Midtjylland in his debut senior game was also the same kind of statement as Rooney made with his Premier League debut.
The England captain had, incidentally, bagged his first brace for Everton against Southampton, eventually setting off on a career that would leave most players in the world envious of him.
While this particular feat of Rashford did not break any other record, the fact that his brace came against Arsenal makes it all the more important to his career.
