Chelsea 1-2 Manchester United: 5 Players who were brilliant for the Red Devils | Carabao Cup 2019/20

#1 Marcus Rashford

Chelsea FC v Manchester United - Carabao Cup Round of 16

Solskjaer started with Anthony Martial on the bench, with Marcus Rashford given the responsibility to get the goals on the night. Even though United changed formation for the game, the Englishman found himself in his preferred left forward role and made the most of it.

Rashford was busy on the left side, running at the Chelsea defence, pressing the opposition and trying to create opportunities. In the 25th minute, though, he had to endure a real test of character.

After Daniel James was brought down by Marcos Alonso in the box, United won a penalty. Rashford had missed one against Norwich at the weekend, but he stepped up to take the spot-kick again. The Englishman send Willy Caballero the wrong way to give United the lead.

After the goal, Rashford continued to be a threat, especially on the break. He even switched places with Daniel James to run through the right at one point in time. However, his best moment arrived after United had won a free-kick in the 73rd minute.

From 30 yards out, Rashford unleashed a venomous strike that swerved through the air and into the top right corner. It was a goal that reinstated United’s lead and ultimately helped them win the game.
