These were the best ‘who is Marcus Rashford?’ jokes doing the rounds as the starlet scored two goals on his Man Utd debut.
At just 18 years and 117 days of age, Rashford overtook George Best as the Red Devils’ youngest goalscorer in European competition with his brace in the 5-1 Europa League win against FC Midtjylland of Denmark.
In what may or may not be another record, Rashford has now scored this season for United’s U18s, U19s, U21s and first team.
Nevertheless, there were plenty of people asking themselves “who is Marcus Rashford?”, and some made a joke of it:
Rashford, like Roy Keane vs Juventus, qualifies Manchester United to the next round of an European competition with a legendary performance.
