Marcus Rashford came on for Juan Mata early in the second half and ended up scoring the winner deep in stoppage time.

The youngster who just turned 21 just three days earlier made his appearance from the bench tonight at the Vitality, despite United lacking the presence of anyone who was accustomed to being the focal point of the attack, and he could've been justified if he felt hard done by that.

He missed a golden opportunity shortly after coming on as he failed to put the ball in the net after a brilliant Ashley Young free-kick hit the woodwork and fell kindly to the young Englishman, who failed to score from close range, but he didn't fluff his lines the second time he was presented with a clear-cut opportunity by Paul Pogba and he duly obliged by turning it in for only his second goal of the league season.
