MUFC 3 - 1 Everton

United got off to a great start but Everton fought back

Antony turned home Rashford's far-post cross but had the character to fight back. Conor Coady rammed home a 13th-minute equaliser when David de Gea calamitously allowed Neal Maupay's apparently harmless cross to roll through his legs.

Rashford shines again

Lampard's players continued to battle hard. However, once some brilliant approach play from Rashford had deceived Coady into turning the forward's cross into his own net, the visitors' character alone was not enough.

After Dominic Calvert-Lewin had a goal ruled out for offside, Rashford kept his nerve to beat England international team-mate Jordan Pickford from the penalty spot deep into injury time.

Reaction

Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane spoke about Marcus Rashford on ITV: "The beauty of tonight, is that is what I expect from him. I'm not surprised by his performance tonight. He is becoming one of main players for Manchester United. Can he get them back to competing for trophies?

Rashford told ITV: "It's always nice to go through in cup games and the FA Cup is definitely a special one to play in. We're pleased to go through to the next round and more importantly we keep momentum going and winning games."

 One United fan tweeted: "There is such a feel-good factor at Old Trafford at the moment, we are going places under Erik ten Hag."

United Review: Rashford on form as United progress

Manchester United 2 - 0 Burnley Marcus Rashford readjusted to club matters after his World Cup campaign with England as he scored a fine solo goal in Manchester United's EFL Cup win over Burnley at Old Trafford. Rashford was one of five United players on duty in Qatar to make manager Erik ten Hag's starting line-up. Christian Eriksen put the hosts ahead just before the half hour with a fine first-time finish after Aaron Wan-Bissaka has provided his first goal assist since May 2021, Rashford took centre stage 12 minutes into the second period. Given too much space as Burnley's defence backed off, Rashford started running 10 yards inside his own half and didn't stop until he had sprinted into the box, darted between Jack Cork and Jordan Beyer and driven his ninth goal of the season into the bottom corner.It was enough to earn United only their second home win inside 90 minutes in this competition in five years. United have too much for Burnley in the end Despite Burnl...
