100 for Rashford.... Defensive masterclass.

                                          Not our best game as a team. The bench and second team players are not at the first team level, but what a defensive masterclass it was from the team.

The roulette spin in the first half and the miss pass following that sums up his game. Addressing the elephant in the room, Rona
