Manchester United v AFC Bournemouth - Premier League 2018/19

#3 Rashford had a very good game

Rashford's continuous improvement as a player should also appease the United faithful very much. He worked very hard against Bournemouth and often moved to the flanks to collect balls and create moves from there.

He has to be given the majority of the credit for the first goal scored by Pogba as he collected the ball on the right flank and dribbled past a couple of Bournemouth defenders to deliver a perfect cross to Pogba.

Rashford scored a goal himself in the 45th minute of the match to take his tally to six goals from 23 matches this season. He looks like a complete centre-forward for United now and has begun to combine very well with Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingard.

He could have scored another goal, but his shot from just outside the box deflected off a Bournemouth defender and went wide.
